M-Audio ProFire 610 support

Merged into trunk in r1687.

Can someone also confirm that the mixer works too?

Will this update help with a driver for the profire 2626?

I'm closing this ticket. If anybody is interested or has problems with mixer support, feel free to reopen it.

Successful report of a working mixer would also be nice, so we can mention it in the device database.

I'm reopening this ticket since I wasn't able to get Jack playback using this device, while capturing works as expected.

I attached debug logs, using the new firewire stack.

A few notes that may be of interest:

• using the old stack I wasn't even able to start jackd - even ffado-test ListDevice hung and showed incomplete information (before you ask: permissions on /dev/raw1394 were right);

• I had some success in setting the mixer to "Generic_Dice_EAP" and using it: I could route analog input to output, hear and even mix it, but still silence from Jack;

• I tried dual-booting as suggested here for the M-Audio Ozonic, but then could not start jackd - I would argue it isn't the same muting issue, since I experienced analog output (see the previous note); instead I could see mixing and routing defaults as set under Windows: I reproduced them after power-cycling the device, with similar results: analog input is monitored, Jack is not.

Replying to daniele:

This is most certainly not a ProFire 610 specific problem but one that apparently affects all DICE based devices with EAP if ffado is run on firewire-core instead of raw1394. Saffire Pro24: works on old kernel drivers, silent on new kernel drivers

A few notes that may be of interest:

Impossible to say on this basis whether this point is ProFire 610 related. Maybe the controller (Ricoh R5C832 according to your ffado-diag output) acted up.

These two points are consistent with my observations with Focusrite Saffire Pro24, another DICE device with EAP. (Dual-booted with OS X though, not Windows.)

The playback thing is a problem all dice-based devices that implement the EAP seem to have. Nothing ProFire? 610 specific. and its being worked on...

I created #301 as reference for that.

Thanks for reporting the mixer, I added the generic line in r1884.
