I also own this interface, recently it has started to work in uac2
mode,
I still cant raise the samplerate, but it runs.. however, It still
runs
alot better in uac1.. when in uac2 jack mysteriously shuts down
for
no
appearant reason. I run archlinux, allways uptodated with vanilla
kernel.
This is when I connect it without pressing 1. eg, uac2

And as with pressing 1.

Hi,
In my understanding, you are not in UAC2 , you are in high-speed
mode but the usb audio protocol remains UAC1.
In the kernel source in the file include/uapi/linux/usb/audio.h is
defined two values:
/* bInterfaceProtocol values to denote the version of the standard
used */
#define UAC_VERSION_1 0x00
#define UAC_VERSION_2 0x20
So if the card is in UAC2 , you should see bInterfaceProtocol at 32
(or 0x20)
By example, now the RME babyface is recognize as UAC2 device, you
can view its "lsub -v" here :

But for the usbPre2 device with ou without pressing the "1" button,
we have bInterfaceProtocol = 0. So we stays in UAC1, even the
speed increase to high-speed.
I was also surprised to see that the USBPre2 now works duplex without
pressing the "1" button while connecting.
This was tested on Fedora 17 with stock kernel 3.6.6-1.fc17.
Jack was set to 512 Frames/period and 3 periods/buffer, and in a 24h
recording I got no xruns.
I did not manage to choose a sample rate unlike 48000, though.
With lsusb, I can see 2 configurations for the same device, and the
second one has bInterfaceProtocol = 32 for all interfaces except HID:

Hi Hans,
Thank you for provided information.
So, some usbPre2 have bNumConfigurations=2 when "1" is not pressed but not all
usbPre2 (mine or alexander devices have only one "Configuration Descriptor").
Your device descriptor contains a UAC2 configuration descriptor, This sound good.
Perhaps there is different firmware ?
I have the 1.03 firmware. Can you provide your firmware level ?
