Bug Description

Binary package hint: udev

Now that bug #626665 is fixed, we can complete the effort by adding the line below to the acl rules, to enable all audio firewire devices to be used by the current logged in user. A debdiff is attached below.

# Non-standard firewire devices supported by FFADO
SUBSYSTEM=="firewire", ENV{ID_FFADO}=="1", TAG+="udev-acl"
