That's not the case. If the documentation says it does, then it's probably
just old documentation comparing hotplug to whatever the situation was before
hotplug was invented.

It does require that the device firmware be installed on your system, but once
it is, a udev-based system (with not-too-ancient ALSA drivers) should handle
it fine. I use such a setup myself.
