The code in this repository has nothing to do with an ALSA kernel
driver. It's a userspace program that uses libusb to communicate with an
USB device. That could be a proof of concept to figure out the protocol
details, I don't know.

Best to contact the author of that repository and ask what his/her plans
are. Patches for ALSA to support more hardware are always welcome, but
the driver must eventually live in the kernel.

I put it to github as a response to your question about a month ago.
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.alsa.devel/127223/focus=127227

My work on this is paused at the moment. I will get back to it in about a
month and hopefully finish it. I would like to see it as a part of the kernel
someday but that will depend on how things will go.

Regards,

Michal
