Hello Mr. Hartman,



i am just a daily linux user and not familiar with the internal=20
proceedings of bugreports, mailing lists and development teams.

Please dont take any of this personal. I just sent the report to the=20
main developer according to the linux kernel documentation,

which is you. As with yesterdays and this email, i only clicked reply=20
and i hope that the email finds its way to the right developer

and with some good luck maybe this quirk will be fixed.



Small addendum to the usb microphone quirk:


As a workaround i use a professional ZOOM H2 usb audio recording device=20
from 2009. Specs can be found on a wikipedia page.



The main difference why this works fine is because during boot it is=20
only powered up and on the device itself i have to

choose either to be a smd card storage device or a usb stereo=20
microphone. At this point i have to manually set the

audio sample rate to either 44100 or 48000 and then initialize the usb=20
connection with the pc. Once this is done,

it works and the usb subsystem does not override=C2=A0the sampling rate=20
because it is set on the device itself.


As with todays dmesg messages, they are the same as yesterday. All other=
=20
dmesg messages are fine with no errors, and all other usb devices work=20
fine.


Thank you very much.


Best regards
