Aplay ran without any error messages but there was no output produced. I set
all of the channels to "on", and also tried enabling the "pass-thru" option
but none of this had any audible effect. Whenever I ran aplay again, the
channels ("punch status" in the /proc/asound/card1/rme9652 file) were somehow
reset to "off".

An example of /proc/asound/card1/rme9652 appears below.

I have searched the WEb for further information. Questions have been asked on
this and other mailing list concerning this card, but I can't find any answers
in the archives.

Any help would be much appreciated. When I get this working I will document my
findings to help others.
