Re: [Musicpd-dev-team] Schiit Bifrost, usb, C-Media 6631, ALSA/MPD

Daniel:
To be concise-
1) I have tested with Alsa 1.0.24 and 1.0.25. 
2) These devices (CMedia, Tenor and Audio Widget) have always had the same
issues. They did not change from the first version of UAC2 support.
3) XMOS based USB interfaces work fine.
4) Alex Lee came up with a workaround to get the Audio Widget to work on
Linux, that is not compatible with Windows (Thesycon driver) or OSX.  He can
explain far better than I can.

How can I help resolve these issues? Would hardware help?

Which kernel version do you test this on? And are you saying this is a
regression from older versions?
