Also, the patch would be rather smaller. Agree, after re-reading the audiophile usb modes and AltSettings, this should work for this device and will, as you said, be easier to implement and maintain. We would, however, need Clemens Ladisch or Takashi's point of view on this, since we'll add a param that will potentially affect any usb device.
