Really? I'm quite satisfied with my Quattro, whereas the Edirol UA-20
gave me lots of headaches. Admitted, I was one of the first users of
it, when the ALSA support for it wasn't ready yet.
I am running an older ALSA currently on my laptop, though. Maybe
things broke in the meantime?

Hmm... ok, I guess it'll be hard to find consensus. It sounds like
you're not the only one having trouble with the UA-20 so I'll keep that
in mind.
ALSA is adding support for these non-standards-compliant USB audio
devices quickly. By 0.9.4 the Edirol/Roland UA-20 shows up in
.../alsa-kernel/usb/usbquirks.h and as of 0.9.6 the UA-5 is there too.
From my experience with the UA-5 this means that for 24 bit operation
the device works strictly as an ALSA device--no OSS emulation available.
