Hi,
has anyone tried the M-Audio Transit USB with ALSA yet? (Its bigger
cousin, the USB Audiophile is supported according to alsa-project.org.)
I'm looking for a not-too-expensive USB audio interface for my laptop,
and the Transit would fit nicely, as I already have a usb midi interface.

It should work, but you need the firmware loader from
<http://usb-midi-fw.sourceforge.net/>.

Uhm, after some bad experiences with the MidiSport of a friend, I'm a
bit wary of all devices needing a firmware download. Too bad.
Thanks, that link helped a lot. :) Looks like I might be going for the
Audiotrak Maya 5.1 EX.
The Audiotrak Maya 44 USB (http://www.audiotrak.de/eng/maya44u.html)
also looks nice, but I couldn't find any info about Linux support. Has
anyone here tried that one?
Thanks,
Albert

Sorry, no idea. In theory any "class compliant" USB audio device should
work on Linux. Try asking M-Audio if the device is class compliant.
Personally I wouldn't buy one unless I had some reports from other Linux
users.
But, how horrible is this:

If you thought Linux audio was a mess, consider how bad the Windows
situation must be when hardware manufacturers are implementing
proprietary driver-level hacks for ASIO, MME, WDM, and GSIF apps to talk
to each other.
