Are there any common pit falls that anyone can think of? Guys, while I think this is a good idea, and something that surely can help a lot of people, perhaps your efforts would be better applied if you focused on the sndconfig utility that already has a moderately-working implementation. Wouldn't it be better to start with the internals of sndconfig, port it to your version of Linux, and resubmit the changes back to the maintainer of sndconfig? Perhaps someone wants to make it gtk-capable, so we can have a graphical means of controlling our PnP devices... Dave
