Trying to transition from FFADO to ALSA
Hi, I'm trying to transition from FFADO to ALSA.
I have three Echo AudioFire12 sound cards, although I'm starting out just trying to use two.
I've seen some guides on using multiple soundcards, but with ALSA I'm not sure I can see both of the cards:
$ aplay -l

card 3: AudioFire12 [AudioFire12], device 0: Fireworks [AudioFire12 PCM]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0`There are definitely two cards connected, I can use both currently with JACK + FFADO.
aplay -lshows the same information whether or not snd_dice kernel module is loaded.
Here is some more info about the cards:

FireWire kernel drivers:
The new FireWire kernel stack is loaded.
If running a kernel earlier than 2.6.37 and problems are experienced, either
try with the old Firewire kernel stack or upgrade to a newer kernel
(preferrably 2.6.37 or later).Any suggestions on how I can combine these two soundcards for use with jack? Maybe even get the third one working as well?
