Yes.

I'm running Debian Sid.

% pulseaudio --version
pulseaudio 5.0

The card has:

2 digitial output ports (S/PDIF)
8 analog output ports
8 analog input ports
1 MIDI input port
1 MIDI output port

Yet the list of profiles [1] doesn't seem to "support" that. In an
attempt to get something working I am currently trying a simple
profile of "Analog Stereo Duplex". However, I cannot get "ogg123 -d
pulse" to use that card as a sink (IDLE vs RUNNING) [2].

I saw a post [3] from May 2013 asking about configuring this card, but
nothing was publicly stated about a resolution.

Alllllllright! :)

I would expect there to be a profile that matches the cards
capabilities, but it doesn't look like it.

Okay. What can I do to further triage this or assist in getting a patch for PA?

Thanks!
