Tried it...same behavior.  [shrugs]

I think that's the usbhid driver.  I tried removing that driver and that
URB when away.

I rebooted to single-user mode (2.6.9-rc2) and made sure the usbhid
driver wasn't loaded.  Same behavior (I checked the debug output and
only my URBs were present).  [shrugs]

I guess I'll just need to track down another capture device that does
coaxial S/PDIF and see if I have the same problem.  (Note that I did try
the optical S/PDIF input on this device and had the same behavior.)
