Stanse found that in snd_usb_parse_audio_endpoints, there is a dangling pointer dereference. When snd_usb_parse_audio_format fails, fp is freed, and continue invoked. On the next loop, there is "fp && fp->altsetting == 1 && fp->channels == 1" test, but fp is set from the last iteration (but is bogus) and thus ilegally dereferenced.
Set fp to NULL before "continue".
Oh, absolutely. Thanks.

I think this should go thru the ALSA tree.
