bInterval 4This device has 2 output devices in order to allow your normal desktop audio to go to one and your chat software to go to the other.

table.insert(alsa_monitor.rules,rule)"[Mapping analog-stereo-chat-output]" is the second output for chat, indicated by "device-strings = hw:%f,1,0". This profile set seems to work, although it may be missing some mappings, as the device does have a line/opt in and an optical out that I'm not sure I covered. I'm only using it for the stereo profile anyway. Playing audio to both sinks, I get this in wpctl status:

The primary issue I am running into is that seemingly randomly, the audio completely stops. In the KDE Audio Volume tray panel, you can see the audio meters still moving, but no sound is heard. The input meter will not respond to when you are talking, and no one can hear you if you're on a voice call. I'm currently listening to two audio sources (wpctl status from above) waiting for it to freeze again, but it hasn't yet. I got this error earlier in the dmesg:
[ 3472.287378] usb 7-2: uac_clock_source_is_valid(): cannot get clock validity for id 37

[ 3533.940135] usb 7-2: clock source 37 is not valid, cannot useSince this freeze was earlier, these clock IDs may or may not line up with the lsusb -v output above, I am not sure.
While writing this post (and now a couple of days later) I've been playing audio to both outputs and I can't get it to freeze again. I am wondering if this has been fixed by me switching the USB port that I have plugged the device into. It's now plugged into a blue port instead of the normal black ones. Perhaps that has more power? Regardless, I have other issues:
A second issue that may or may not be related is that when I connect the device to the computer, this shows up in dmesg:

[ 3686.652943] cdc_acm 5-1:1.1: ttyACM0: USB ACM deviceThe device also doesn't show up as an audio device in the KDE Audio Volume tray panel until I restart WirePlumber/PipeWire with systemctl --user restart pipewire.service. It mentions the clock not being valid again, so wasn't sure if this was related to the primary issue or not. Fortunately, if the device is already connected when starting the computer, it shows up as an audio device. Mostly.
If the device is already connected when starting the computer, it does indeed show up as an audio device and I am able to play audio to both outputs. However, the input does not work. Even restarting systemctl --user restart pipewire.service does not fix this. I need to physically unplug and replug the device, and then restart PipeWire, before the input will register. I'm not sure if this is related to the alsa-card-profile I created or something about the errors in the section above. But usually if a mapping isn't available, it won't show any of the profiles that use it. In this case, they still show up, just that the input doesn't relay any audio to the system (audio meter doesn't move).
Any help on these issues would be greatly apprecaited! Thank you! And if I can get it to freeze on that primary issue, I'll post the updated dmesg log (and anything else you need me to check).
