TBH, the whole substream concept is lost on me. Where does this guarantee come from? From the substream concept or from intimate knowledge of this device?
Both :)

What are your results with the multi plugin? Is that something you can live with?
I don't actually have one of these devices and the end-user I was helping is happy now, AFAIK.
But solving this required editing asoundrc files (ugh) and casting several magic spells. Would be nice if it "just works."
The same problem occurs with Portaudio on this device (or similar) - it would be great to just be able to open one device with 4 channels, or 2 stereo pairs.
I had wondered whether it could be done by some card-specific definitions in eg /usr/share/alsa/cards as is done particularly with PCI cards?? Anybody any ideas?
Gabriel, could you post the multi pcm you worked out for this, as it may help others?
