Hi, With the Ubuntu Studio team, we have work on this kind of problem, Echo sound cards are not alone with this case. So we took time to find info about firmwares, etc... about all these sound cards, most of them are redistribuable.
Actually, the main problem was that firmwares where not installed at the same places, and loaders looked for them at several places. So, with Crimsun help, we have designed an "alsa-firmware" package from sources (wich was missing in previous ubuntu and debian) and tweak the "alsa-tools" package (mostly script to configure firmware loader well), and we have base our work on latest alsa drivers (so most of cards are supported now). The aim is that every sound card needing a firmware loader should work out of the box. Important : the packages are now waiting for revu, I hope that we will have them soon to resolve the alsa driver bugs. If some Motu can help checking, it would be great.
