Thanks Andy, for the reply. I really appreciate this gesture. And I am sorry I wasn’t complete in the original email. I had tried to unplug and replug. But that also doesn’t list the device in ‘alsamixer’ and hence doesn’t work after a suspend/wakeup operation. Is there a way to force the scan of USB sound devices manually if that is not happening automatically? As I had posted earlier that ‘lsusb’ and ‘cat /proc/asound/cards’ do list the device. It is just that ALSA is not seeing it. Regards ~Pankaj
