Add the lines
audio
snd-usb-audio
to your /etc/hotplug/blacklist file (or create it if it doesn't
exist). This should prevent the crashing driver from being loaded
automatically.
And please post the output of "lsusb -v" (when the UA-30 is
connected), and your ALSA version (in /proc/asound/version, if ALSA is
running).
If the "audio" driver is the culprit, you might try to do a
"modprobe snd-usb-audio" manually. If this works, you can remove the
snd-usb-audio line from the blacklist file.
Is it worthwhile getting another soundcard?
Not as long as there is hope to get the UA-30 running.
