Re: [PATCH] ALSA: usb-audio: Disable quirks for BOSS Katana amplifiers

I thought I would re-try the change you made. When I tried this last year
on my old laptop, I recall I couldn't get it working properly.

This time around it works... sort of, but isn't without some significant
issues for me. For a start, it only works in Jack. If I try to access the
alsa device directly (for instance, using ALSA mode in Ardour or using
Audacity) it doesn't work. It also fills my dmesg with error messages:

[  184.089158] usb 1-4: Unable to change format on ep #8e: already in use
[  184.089232] usb 1-4: Unable to change format on ep #8e: already in use
[  184.089401] usb 1-4: Unable to change format on ep #8e: already in use
[  184.089619] usb 1-4: Unable to change format on ep #8e: already in use

So, unfortunately, whilst it seems like it's a tactical fix for some
situations, it seems to be broken in other ways.

When I tried it on my GT-001 I got similar results, although only one
"Unable to change format on ep #8e: already in use" message this time
rather than the logs getting spammed. Interestingly, I got more xruns with
this as well.

Personally I'll be going back to how I had it before with the implicit
feedback disabled, as it's more reliable and functional for me, but it's
clear this one isn't solved yet.

Cheers,

Keith
