What is the name for the sound device?
FWIW, you get unique device name listed in /proc/asound/
A Swissonic device
spinymouse@precise:~$ ls -hAl /proc/asound/ | grep card3
dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Jun 18 15:14 card3
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 5 Jun 18 15:14 U0x170b0x11 -> card3
A Korg device
spinymouse@precise:~$ ls -hAl /proc/asound/ | grep card3
dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Jun 18 15:14 card3
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 5 Jun 18 15:14 nanoKONTROL -> card3
but what names are used for "udevinfo -a -p /sys/block/[...]"?
spinymouse@precise:~$ ls /sys/block/
loop0 loop2 loop4 loop6 ram0 ram10 ram12 ram14 ram2 ram4 ram6
ram8 sda sr0
loop1 loop3 loop5 loop7 ram1 ram11 ram13 ram15 ram3 ram5 ram7
ram9 sdb
Resp. in /sys/"whatever"
/sys/block/ is block devices (i.e. hard drives, potential ram drives,
loop back devices), so it wouldn't be in there. I'm not sure where in
/sys it would be, but if you check the last few lines dmesg after
plugging it in it should tell you.
