And let's not drop out 1394 or other external
buses. The issue isn't
USB as much as it's an external network of devices that can both be
rewired easily and in some cases come and go in strange ways. If
you're using an external USB powered hub, for instance, and the power
isn't applied for some period of time the system thinks the device is
gone when it's just that someone kicked out the wall wart. Making that
sort of support of external devices really robust would take some
serious thinking.
The way ffado works, these will all be joined (possibly automatically) in one
big device. and each channel on each device is named unique(?) and aliased
with system_*. So it should be the same ports in jack everytime you start the
setup.
But I don't think ffado is currently able to do dynamic add/remove. Can't test
it here, not enough fw-devices. ;-)
For the real problem: Maybe udev can show some more information (like serial
number) for the pci devices? Or maybe it can provide the interrupt. That way
unique devices would be possible.
