Oops - my bad.

Not until /lib/udev/rules.d/60-alsa-firmware-loaders.rules has been
changed: the second rule line in the us-122 stanza needs to be
modified from:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ACTION=="add", ATTR{idVendor}=="1604",
ATTR{idProduct}=="8007", RUN+="/lib/udev/tascam_fpga"
to
SUBSYSTEM=="sound", ACTION=="add", ATTR{id}=="USX2Y",
RUN+="/lib/udev/tascam_fpga"

(I guess that the second rule line in the US-428 and US-224 stanzas
need to be changed too, but I only have a US-122 so I can't verify
this).

I've been testing my us-122 with the new udev rule line for the last
week and it works perfectly.

Thank you for your help. Jaime
