 hal 0.5.9-1ubuntu2~feisty1

 I'm getting USB devices with names like:
 alsa_output.usb_device_ffffffff_ffffffff_noserial_alsa_playback_0

 When I look in HAL the name is:
 alsa_output.usb_device_471_155_noserial_if0_alsa_playback_0

 My guess is that pulse is getting the name out of HAL before HAL has
 received the reply from the USB device describing it's USB ID.HAL
 probably starts the name off as FFFFFFFF and changes it when the USB
 device responds. Note the missing if0. HAL hasn't picked the USB device
 config to use yet.

 This is happening pretty much every time I unplug/plug one of my USB
 devices.
