Yeah, those commands should show you your updated devices after plug/unplug. > also , you mention one comment on my default.pa that .. > "load-module module-alsa-sink device=hw:0,0" > "OK, so here you've modified the default.pa file > for your system.

It shouldn't affect hotplug of USB stuff, just your internal card. That said you should still remove that line as it's not needed. I actually clarified the wording on the wiki page that lead you to add this line as another user on IRC got caught out by it too. Hopefully it's clearer now. So, the problem of your USB not showing up is presumably still there.. If udev is working correctly now, then I'd run PA manually via pulseaudio -vvvvv and look for the debug that should spew out when you do the plug/unplug. My initial guess at the problem would be one of permissions. i.e. your user may not be allowed to access this new device node that is created. In a typical desktop env, udev will use udev-acl to give your user permission via an ACL on the device node. PA will only add a sink/source if your user actually has permission to open the device. This last bit is just a guess tho'. Hope it helps.
