Hi list,

Yamaha YIT-W12TX is a USB dongle which allows to transmit audio from PC 
to the YSP-4300 sound bar [1][2]. While it is quite old and no longer 
sold, I recently tried to make it work under linux. Unfortunately, it 
did not work:

This is with kernel-5.9.13-200.fc33.x86_64 and 
alsa-lib-1.2.4-5.fc33.x86_64 on Fedora 33. Under Windows 10 the dongle 
works without any special drivers from Yamaha, everything appears to be 
downloaded by Windows automatically, so I was hoping the device could be 
made to work under Linux relatively easily.

Best regards,
Julian
