Re: [LAD] Usb Audio Driver

Thanks for your response Ralf, our Arch is pretty much dedicated to audio
already, we maintained only the necessary to work as a LV2 host (this
script wouldn't do much actually) and the IRQ's are not shared, we are
using different USB hubs to prioritize audio, I think we did what we could
without changing code lines already, this is why I was asking about the
drivers haha.
