'Failed to find a working profile' for firewire sound devices

David,

I tried your idea with my devices:
1. $ LANG=C pulseaudio -vvvv --log-time=1  > ~/pulseverbose.log 2>&1
2. plug-in devices (repeat)
3. $ aplay/arecord -L

All of my devices are detected automatically.

When I playback with 2ch application, then the samples are going to 
every available channels.

And I mind that PulseAudio tries the same times as the number of 
settings in multichannels.conf. Each trial call snd_pcm_prepare() in the 
end of snd_pcm_hw_params().

This is a bit problem for the devices because the drivers start stream 
when snd_pcm_prepare() is called.

There are some devices which are not designed to start/stop streams so 
frequently. If possible, I want to reduce the time to start/stop stream.

There are some devices which need much time to start stream (300-600 
msec). So with such device, PulseAudio need much time to finish its 
detection.

In theory, I must hide these quirks against user-land. But considering 
user-land driver (FFADO), I cannot make the drivers to keep streams 
opened...

Firewire speakers are just three models.
(Vendor ID/Model ID)
iSight:  0x000a27:0x000010
Griffin: 0x001292:0x00f970
Lacie:   0x00d04b:0x00f970

So we can write udev rules for them to distinguish from the others. 
Please refer to '60-ffado.rules'.
