USB sound card via Express Card adapter

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Due to lack of bandwith with my internal USB bus, like we are discussing in another thread, I ordered a Trust SuperSpeed 2 Port USB 3.0 Laptop Express Card.

$ lsusb -v

I have a new USB bus, and my Edirol UA25-EX is the only device working in bus #3

$ cat /proc/asound/cards
 0 [Intel          ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel
                      HDA Intel at 0xf0a00000 irq 22

                      HD-Audio Generic at 0xcfedc000 irq 17

                      EDIROL UA-25EX at usb-0000:1a:00.0-3, full speed

$ cat /proc/interrupts | grep usb
  16:         91         84         83         88   IO-APIC-fasteoi   ehci_hcd:usb1, ohci1394, xhci_hcd:usb3

I have my device working on IRQ 16.

everything seems all right, so I start JACK, and I have this error.

I suppose that the problem is not JACK related, is ALSA related:

$ aplay -v -D plughw:UA25EX /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Left.wav

TICK_TIME: 0

Another thing: the device is listed in 
$ cat /proc/bus/pci/devices | grep xhci
and not in
$ cat /proc/bus/usb/devices

Aany ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Joan Quintana
