I compiled support for my US-122 right into the kernel. Gentoo
seems to have installed alsa-{lib,utils,tools} as dependancies
for other things. It didn't install alsa-driver, but I would
guess that the kernel driver is enough. Is that true?
lspci shows:
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 1604:8006 Tascam US-122 Audio/Midi Interface without fw)
But I don't get a device for the unit, and the USB light on the unit
does not light up, although the power light does.
Information on USB audio seems fairly scarce out there. I'm
not sure what to do next.
Thanks,
Tobiah

You need alsa-firmware as the us-122 needs a firmware loaded. Your
hotplug/udev should then keep track of the loading (doesn't work for
me). Or you have to execute usx2yloader to load it. The lid on the
device will light up if the firmware is loaded and the device will
show up in "aplay -l" or in qjackctl's configuration...

yes. You only need external ALSA drivers if you want to install very
recent versions of the drivers.

I'm not familiar with this device, but is ALSA running and is the module
loaded?
/etc/init.d/alsa start
modprobe snd-usb-usx2y nrpacks=1

For other USB-audio-devices it's just as simple as modprobe
snd_usb_audio and you're done. AFAIK the Tascam additionally needs to
load a firmware:
emerge media-sound/alsa-firmware
vi /etc/modules.d/alsa
[...]
alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-usx2y nrpacks=1
