I fetched this patch series from https://github.com/takaswie/sound request_v5 branch, applied it on top of 3.17.1, and reran the tests snd-oxfw with Lacie FireWire Speakers and Griffin FireWave which I descibed in "Re: [RFC][PATCH 00/15 v4] OXFW driver, a succesor to firewire-speakers". I got the same positive results.

I am planning to test the snd-dice part of this patch series with a Focusrite Saffire PRO 24 sometime later this week. I can test PCM I/O but am currently not prepared to test MIDI I/O.
