Thanks for this; yes, you may well be right. I get: arcadia:~:$ cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [AudioPCI ]: ENS1371 - Ensoniq AudioPCI Ensoniq AudioPCI ENS1371 at 0xdc00, irq 17 1 [U0x46d0x8ad ]: USB-Audio - USB Device 0x46d:0x8ad USB Device 0x46d:0x8ad at usb-0000:00:0f.1-2, full speed I want to use the first of these. I don't know anything about asound and I don't have .asoundrc. Could you kindly post your file here in case I could use it as a template?
