[alsa-devel] Roland V-Studio 20

I've recently picked up a cheap Roland V-Studio 20 device. This is described 
in the product spec as supporting 24-bit, but it is appearing as 16-bit only.

Unfortunately, Roland seem to insist on their own proprietary descriptors, 
which I don't know how to decode, so I'm not sure whether this is genuinely a 
24-bit interface that isn't being interpreted properly by snd-usb-audio, or 
whether it's marketing spin, and it's actually 16-bit.

I know that some patches were put into snd-usb-audio to "unify" some of the 
individual quirks that were used for Roland gear, but I don;t know if these 
support 24-bit interfaces.

Any ideas/suggestions?

The lsusb -v is as follows:
