Multiple External Audio Interfaces

Hi Everyone,

I'm trying to use two audio interfaces (Guitar Link UC6102) in parallel in Alsa on a UDOO board that runs Ubuntu. The two interfaces are connected on the two USB 2.0 port available on the board: I'm not using any hub. In 20% of the cases, this works fine and I'm able to use the two interfaces as one single "virtual" interface with 4 inputs and 4 outputs (see my .asoundrc file bellow). However, in 80% of the cases, this doesn't work and dmesg says: "cannot submit datapipe for urb 0, error -28: not enough bandwidth".

So it seems that the problem comes from USB controller driver.

I can use 4 of these interfaces on the same USB port with a hub on my Ubuntu laptop without any problem...

Thanks for your help

Cheers,

Romain

ps: your UDOO board really rocks!
