One thing I see right away is that it recognized my digital camera, which hadn't shown up before, so I guess that's an improvement :-) The only difference that I see for the USB Audio device itself is that it seems to have moved from Device 006 to Device 003. But I suspect that this difference wouldn't have any effect. I'm seeing some other differences, too: Whereas I had been getting errors on the Language IDs for various devices saying, for example, Language IDs: none (cannot get min. string descriptor; got len=-1, error=110:Connection timed out) they're now saying: Language IDs: none (cannot get min. string descriptor; got len=-1, error=32:Broken pipe) Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Device Descriptor: bLength 18 bDescriptorType 1 bcdUSB 1.00 bDeviceClass 9 Hub bDeviceSubClass 0 Root Hub bDeviceProtocol 0 bMaxPacketSize0 8 idVendor 0x0000 idProduct 0x0000 bcdDevice 0.00 iManufacturer 0 iProduct 2 USB UHCI-alt Root Hub iSerial 1 d800 bNumConfigurations 1 Configuration Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 2 wTotalLength 25 bNumInterfaces 1 bConfigurationValue 1 iConfiguration 0 bmAttributes 0x40 Self Powered MaxPower 0mA Interface Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 4 bInterfaceNumber 0 bAlternateSetting 0 bNumEndpoints 1 bInterfaceClass 9 Hub bInterfaceSubClass 0 Root Hub bInterfaceProtocol 0 iInterface 0 Endpoint Descriptor: bLength 7 bDescriptorType 5 bEndpointAddress 0x81 EP 1 IN bmAttributes 3 Transfer Type Interrupt Synch Type none wMaxPacketSize 8 bInterval 255 Language IDs: (length=4) 0000 (null)((null)) Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0451:2046 Texas Instruments TUSB2046 Hub Language IDs: none (cannot get min. string descriptor; got len=-1, error=32:Broken pipe) Device Descriptor: bLength 18 bDescriptorType 1 bcdUSB 1.10 bDeviceClass 9 Hub bDeviceSubClass 0 Root Hub bDeviceProtocol 0 bMaxPacketSize0 8 idVendor 0x0451 Texas Instruments idProduct 0x2046 TUSB2046 Hub bcdDevice 1.25 iManufacturer 0 iProduct 0 iSerial 0 bNumConfigurations 1 Configuration Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 2 wTotalLength 25 bNumInterfaces 1 bConfigurationValue 1 iConfiguration 0 bmAttributes 0xe0 Self Powered Remote Wakeup MaxPower 0mA Interface Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 4 bInterfaceNumber 0 bAlternateSetting 0 bNumEndpoints 1 bInterfaceClass 9 Hub bInterfaceSubClass 0 Root Hub bInterfaceProtocol 0 iInterface 0 Endpoint Descriptor: bLength 7 bDescriptorType 5 bEndpointAddress 0x81 EP 1 IN bmAttributes 3 Transfer Type Interrupt Synch Type none wMaxPacketSize 1 bInterval 255 Language IDs: none (cannot get min. string descriptor; got len=-1, error=32:Broken pipe) Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0582:0006 Roland Corp.

I'm a bit hesitant to do so, since this is the most recent version supplied for Mandrake. I'm downloading an alsa-driver-0.9.4-fr2 RPM for i386 from rpmfind, though I'm unclear as to whether it would be better to download the source RPM and build from that instead.
