It is plugged into the firewire card and powered on, hadn't thought to mention...my bad. Interesting point on the alsa driver for firewire. I did note on my other machine where this all works that alsa does see the AF12, as does jack. I rarely look at alsa, so I have no idea how to tell if the fw alsa driver is loaded. At least some part of alsa it is there since if I select it as the driver with jack_control and start jack it finds the sound devices on the MOBO. AS I said this behavior of UBS install is new to me, since it has always just found everything. Of course the only common things are the AF12 and UBS 16.04. The MOBO, fw card, etc. are new.

Have you checked if the alsa driver for your fw-soundcard is loaded? This is a common problem since alsa provides direwire driver itself. If so disable it and try again. Holger ... it's easier if you answer to the list... For me, ffado diag looks good, but it has only detected the firewire card, not your audio device. Can you post the output of lsmod? Holger
