I ended up with a Focusrite Scarlett 18i20, which works fine and is properly supported by using e.g. alsamixer or qasmixer. However, I helped another group of artists use the MOTU interface with a different firmware (1.3.4+558, instead of 1.3.4+608), which seemed to have worked out fine for them! @nando, thanks again for providing the downgrade blob on short notice! It's pretty sad though, that the firmware produced by MOTU is in such bad shape and breaks on a build number level. That's not exactly a selling point... Best, David P.S.: A note on the change of samplerate/ start with JACK on the MOTU device. The device will display the SR in use, it's apparently just way too slow to switch on demand and then be used by ALSA (e.g. through JACK). Well, at least there's a visual indication of what's going on there. -- https://sleepmap.de
