Excellent information - thank you. I'll try the hub too .. I tried the
hub workaround in EDO with no luck, but I'll try a physical hub anyway.
I am getting lots of ugly warnings in /var/log/messages on the Touch:

I'm not expert on the audio guts of the Touch so the above messages
don't mean much to me at the moment.
