Yes, I shall search the Debian user mailing list. I do not understand why the ALSA project prepared a server to upload the users' output of the alsa-info script towards a database (alsa-project.org/cardinfo-db), but searching it with one's hardware as criterion is not possible. At least, there were no matches when I used the Google-Search input field on this page yesterday.
