my udev rules are breaking my dmixer setup why?

Hello everybody,

I am trying to use udev to get fixed device names depending on the
location of the device on the usb bus. The udev rules seems to be
working fine, however i cant get dmix to work with the udev rules using
only hw dies work. If i remove the udev rules the dmixer works fine.

Can somebody look at the attachment, and maybe do some testing, i would
highly appreciate it.

I am also on chat.freenode.org and #alsa as tuxcrafter

Thanks in advance,

Jelle
