Sorry, can't answer any of those questions... but how are you connecting your Audiofire? I have one here sitting unused because the one laptop that had a Firewire connection died a decade ago. I have a desktop system available, so a PCIe-Firewire card would be an option, or my Dell laptop with USB-C.

I bought one of these:

 and one of these:

I could not get this combination to work. However, when I got this cable:
https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00016W6MS/
 everything worked fine.

I do not know if it was a cable problem or a socket on the card problem. but the 9 pin to 6 pin (800 to 400) cable worked where the 6 pin to 6 pin did not. Could be the cable itself was bad.

I will say that the audiofire 12 has better sound than my Delta 66 (ice1712 based PCI card).

ffado-mixer has some things backwards and is unable to save settings to the box, so my box always comes up on wordclock rather than internal clock, so I need to set that before I can run jack no matter which drivers I use. I suppose I should set up a script to do that :)
