[patch 04/71] sound: usb-audio: add workaround for Blue Microphones devices

From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Jul 28 2009 - 20:03:01 EST


2.6.30-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Clemens Ladisch <clemens@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 8886f33f25083a47d5fa24ad7b57bb708c5c5403 upstream.

Blue Microphones USB devices have an alternate setting that sends two
channels of data to the computer. Unfortunately, the descriptors of
that altsetting have a wrong channel setting, which means that any
recorded data from such a device has twice the sample rate from what
would be expected.

This patch adds a workaround to ignore that altsetting. Since these
devices have only one actual channel, no data is lost.
