anymore (ID ffff:fffe).

Title:
  USB audio sound card not recognized after update to Linux
  3.12-rc1-saucy

Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Not sure where this report should go, I think it concerns the Linux
  kernel 3.12-rc1-saucy from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-
  ppa/mainline/

  After installing above mentioned kernel (switching from 3.11.1) I can
  no longer use my USB sound card. (It is an external D/A converter and
  speaker amplifier.) The sound settings dialog only lists "Dummy
  Output". (My onboard soundcard is disabled in BIOS.)

  Dmesg:
  usb 1-1.1.2: new full-speed USB device number 13 using ehci-pci
  usb 1-1.1.2: New USB device found, idVendor=08bb, idProduct=2706

  snd_usb_audio: `-2' invalid for parameter `index'

  and /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf indeed does have this line:
  options snd-usb-audio index=-2

  The kernel apparently sees my USB amplifier, but it is not listed in
  the Sound settings, even though there is no other sound device
  present.
