Thanks for the information.

in case that as of now the studiolive isn't officially supported or the above behavior is due to the fact that so far only the 16.4.2 is known to the module, i'm willing to help as far as i can ;) i hope that already seeing 16 channels is a good point to start and that it's not too hard to make the remaining 8 show up as well...
Would you get output from '/proc/asound/pcm'?
$ cat /proc/asound/pcm [...] 04-00: DICE : StudioLive : playback 1 : capture 1 04-01: DICE : StudioLive : playback 1 : capture 1
all looks to me like you were right. IIUC the board provides a total of 32 output channels and 26 for input. does this mean the device is already fully recognized and functional? can alsa be configured to provide all channels as one "sound card" so they become available in, say, ardour?
ALSA dice driver is functional expectedly in the case, with the inconvenience that you noted... The driver adds two pair of PCM playback/capture device so that each of them handles corresponding single isochronous packet streaming.
I suggest users to use 'alsa_in' and 'alsa_out' in jackd session. Two pairs of PCM device (hw:x,0 and hw:x,1) need to be handled for all of PCM channels. I'm sorry but at present total channels are not available via one pair of PCM device.
Well, this is a request from me. In IEEE 1394 bus, each device has 'configuration ROM' which the other device can read. Linux FireWire subsystem read it for device detection. I gather the ROM image[1] for better detection and would I request you to send the ROM image to me by following below instruction?
After detected, FireWire character device corresponding to your device is added to Linux system. Typically it's '/dev/fw1'. At the same time, the ROM image is served via node on sysfs. In the case of '/dev/fw1', it's '/sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw1/config_rom'. I'd like you to redirect its content to file and send it to me (or send pull request by github service).
