Doublechecking indicates my initial test was wrong somehow; both card->dev->parent and card->parent passed as arg 2 to the device_create call in snd_register_device result in correct device symlinks. Are these two actually semantically different? I'm just curious. The call to device_create in cound_core.c:sound_insert_unit also needs to be modified in order for the device symlinks in the other unit types to be correct. Again, modifying the 'dev' argument to '(dev?dev->parent:NULL)' appears to fix the problem. Is that correct/appropriate there? Monty
