I connected the soundcard and it is recognized (see "lsusb -v" below) but I can not find it in the system settings and also not in the JACK setup. I thought it should appear there. I also tested a very cheap/crappy usb-1.1 soundcard, this was completely recognized and could be activated in the system settings etc. I don't know whether this is important but my computer is a sort of old, maybe the usb-controllers are too old ?
