Thunderbolt is basically just PCIe. I don't think that it has drivers of its own, like Cardbus (as opposed to PCMCIA) didn't because if you could not access that bus, you could not run your computer in the first place. I've heard numerous people state that a stock Apple TB-FW Adapter worked fine with Firewire soundcards under Linux laptops (Lenovo I think) that had Thunderbolt interfaces (there was a time they were popular for somewhat model-agnostic docking stations). Even if you had to use another TB3->TB1/2 adapter in between for newer Thunderbolt interfaces. And some FW800->FW400 cable. >>> Sticking to the good old PCI-Clasic device, I wonder if pipewire does >>> work well with RME HDSP.

Check dmesg output to see whether there is a problem with loading the firmware. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
