Hi, I've just bought a steinberg ur44. It is reported as having worked in an earlier kernel to the 3.18 rt custom/3.19 low latency generic that I am using. The low latency kernel is generic but the realtime is compiled with the alsa quirks as described here:
http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2014-March/074120.html
On plugging it in, the card is recognised by udev but is disconnected after seemingly being set up. The same error seems to be occurring when I start the machine with the card plugged in. There seems to be an ACL error reported in journalctl. I include the appropriate lines from the udevadm and from journalctl
udevadm:
sudo udevadm monitor
monitor will print the received events for: UDEV - the event which udev sends out after rule processing KERNEL - the kernel uevent

I can compile a kernel reasonably well, and can understand and program in c, c++, but am not well versed in lower level usb hardware coding. I'd be grateful for any help, many thanks!
Many thanks
