After much hassle, I eventually managed to install my M-Audio Audiophile USB soundcard under Ubuntu 9.04. When I first plugged it in, it wouldn't work and only showed up as "Texas Instruments, Inc." under LSUSB.
For a few months, it worked fine, with one exception: Opening up some browser-based java applets would cause the audio to become completely garbled, and could only be corrected by a system restart. Unplugging einserting the soundcard and entering "sudo asoundconf set-default-card tm" would sort of fix it; the soundcard would work under Rhythmbox and not much else.
However, one day, after opening a Java chat applet and restarting the system, my sound did not return. LSUSB has gone back to registering it as "Texas Instruments", and the internal sound output really isn't supported under Linux. What do I do next? Would switching to JACK fix my problem?
