you've probably got new firmware. the current ALSA drivers don't work
with new firmware. you have two choices:

 a) downgrade to older firmware (requires access to a windows system)
 b) find someone who is serious about taking the files i have and
updating the drivers.

i am sufficiently upset by RME's attitude to Linux support for their
devices that when combined with the fact that i have absolutely no time
for driver work means that i can't do this myself.
