NAME
     snd_uaudio - USB audio and MIDI device driver

SYNOPSIS
     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your
     kernel configuration file:

           device sound
           device usb
           device snd_uaudio

     Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the
     following line in loader.conf(5):

           uaudio_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION
     The snd_uaudio driver provides support for USB audio class devices and
     USB MIDI class devices.

     A USB audio device consists of a number of components: input terminals
     (e.g. USB digital input), output terminals (e.g. speakers), and a number
     of units in between (e.g. volume control).

     Refer to the `USB Audio Class Specification' for more information.

BUGS
     The PCM framework in FreeBSD, as of this writing, does not handle device
     un-registrations in a properly abstracted manner, i.e., a detach request
     is refused by the PCM framework if the device is in use.  It is necessary
     to allow the device un-registration to complete successfully, otherwise
     the PCM layer will panic.
