It doesn't have batteries to charge.  If I plug in the AUX cord, I can
switch it on and it stays on (without attempting to announce it on USB).

You sure that it's the Bamster taking the initiative here?  If I wait
for just the right moment, I can see in cat /etc/asound/cards

dak@lola:/usr/local/tmp/lilypond$ cat /proc/asound/cards
 0 [Intel          ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel
                      HDA Intel at 0xfe020000 irq 29
 1 [Audio          ]: USB-Audio - USB Audio
                      ACTIONS USB Audio at usb-0000:00:1d.0-2, full speed

immediately before it switches itself off again.

This behavior just does not make sense.  I cannot rule out that the
chipset might be used in devices where this would be part of more useful
behavior but with as little clue as I have it sounds more like Linux
does something bad here.  Should it respond differently to any request?
