[linux-audio-user] Midisport 8x8 - firmware not loading; is my guess

[Brad Fuller]

It looks like you added "index". I did read somewhere that index helps. 
Is this still needed in these days?
I'll try it.

I have read that the "alias /dev/.."  lines are no longer needed and 
actually may be a problem if included. Sure would like to get 
confirmation on this since it seems others _do_ add them. Anyone?

I don't think it's a ALSA problem as much as the hotplug scripts aren't 
running automatically.
Yeah, that's where I got the scripts too (just followed the ALSA 
directions):
