I think you need a recent alsa and hotplug, not sure

Can you try as root:
tail -f /var/log/messages
then connecting the Indigo? It might thell you where the problem lies.
make sure youre using alsa-driver + alsa-firmware 1.0.8 or newer, as echo support is built
in. also make sure youve enabled hotplug and firmware loading in kernel config (one is
near the top, another is in generic device driver options), and installed hotplug and
fxload packages in your OS. finally, make a symlink /lib/firmware ->
/usr/lib/hotplug/firmware since alsa installs the firmware stuff where the old hotplug
code doesnt know to look. this isnt windows, so theres way too many steps just to get
sound working..
also, why are you using gnome-alsamixer? theres a great app "Emixer" made
especially for the echo cards. its in alsa-utilities or maybe alsa-tools...

I can't seem to get mine to load its firmware. Is there some magic to
loading it? What actually does the loading? Just modprobe for snd-indigo
loads the driver, but aplay -l doesn't list the Indigo, and lspci shows
it as an "unknown device."
I must be missing something fundamental here.
Thanks for any help.
