[LAU] Hardware Soundcard - MOTU 624 AVB Working with Gnu/Linux - Debian 8.7

[georgnk]

Hi.
Yes the firmware is v1.3.2+102 (520 is for the avb)
I don't know either what the bios menu is doing. I can only find bios if I
press the select button from my interface and shows some info,nothing more.

If you test it one day please let me know if you also have this (minor)
issue.

Have nice holidays. Cheers!
