Hello, I am brand new to ALSA and am having some difficulty getting  
my echoaudio layla20 soundcard working in Ubuntu Studio.

        I have installed ALSA drivers version 1.0.14 and configured with  
cards=layla20, with isapnp=off, with debug=detect
        The ALSA configure, make and make install all proceed without errors.
        I have added a line at the end of /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base to make  
sure it is loaded at boot.
        I can see the hostcard with lspci on irq 5
        aplay -l shows no soundcards

        Looking at /var/log/messages  I can see the layla20 initialization  
and a few errors:

/echoaudio.c:44: firmware requested: layla20_dsp.fw
/echoaudio.c:47: get_firmware(): Firmware not available (-2)
/echoaudio.c:1997: init_hw err=-2

        I cannot find the layla firmware cited above (layla20_dsp.fw) on my  
system at all.  I see that the ALSA configure has options to include  
firmware for other devices, but my layla is not mentioned.  Am I  
missing a firmware file or is this retrieved from the unit during  
initialization and created?

        At this point I cannot discriminate between a hardware failure, and  
an incorrect installation of the ALSA driver for the layla20.

        This equipment has not had any problems during its previous use,  
though it has been in storage for a while.

        Thank you very much for the drivers and system and any help you can  
provide!
