I have a Line 6 Helix (guitar multi-effects pedal) that acts as an audio
interface over USB. Although it is listed as a sound card:

~$ cat /proc/asound/cards
 0 [Loopback       ]: Loopback - Loopback
                      Loopback 1
 1 [NVidia         ]: HDA-Intel - HDA NVidia
                      HDA NVidia at 0xf7080000 irq 304
 2 [Generic        ]: HDA-Intel - HD-Audio Generic
                      HD-Audio Generic at 0xf7700000 irq 306
 3 [Alpha          ]: USB-Audio - Lexicon Alpha
                      Lexicon Lexicon Alpha at usb-0000:03:00.0-2, full speed
 4 [HELIX          ]: USB-Audio - HELIX
                      LINE 6 HELIX at usb-0000:03:00.0-1, high speed

it is not recognized as an audio device:

~$ cat /proc/asound/pcm
00-00: Loopback PCM : Loopback PCM : playback 8 : capture 8
00-01: Loopback PCM : Loopback PCM : playback 8 : capture 8
01-03: HDMI 0 : HDMI 0 : playback 1
01-07: HDMI 0 : HDMI 0 : playback 1
01-08: HDMI 0 : HDMI 0 : playback 1
01-09: HDMI 0 : HDMI 0 : playback 1
02-00: ALC887-VD Analog : ALC887-VD Analog : playback 1 : capture 1
02-01: ALC887-VD Digital : ALC887-VD Digital : playback 1
02-02: ALC887-VD Alt Analog : ALC887-VD Alt Analog : capture 1
03-00: USB Audio : USB Audio : playback 1 : capture 1

I think the issue can be seen in dmesg:

[74449.448191] usb 1-1: new high-speed USB device number 8 using xhci_hcd
[74449.651241] usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=0e41, idProduct=4244

[74449.677222] usb 1-1: parse_audio_format_rates_v2(): unable to
retrieve number of sample rates (clock 16)

Is there an easy fix to get it working?

Thanks
