Hi Lukas. Can you let us know which Linux distro your using? Also send the output from lsmod, or perhaps /sbin/lsmod , depending on your distro. Also the output from cat /proc/asound/cards. If you are using Debian, I had problems with my usb midi keyboard. I needed to modprobe snd-usb-audio , and , uhci_hcd when using a 2.6 kernel . These do not seem to be loaded as default. With Debian, if this works, you need to add "snd-usb-audio" and "uhci_hcd" to /etc/modules. Just trying to help. Nigel.
