Have you tried treating it as a 18i8 2nd Gen device first, at least?

FWIW, I had adapted Geoffrey's work as a DKMS module:

https://github.com/HinTak/sound-usb-dkms

But you'll still need to be running as recent as a 5.2.x release kernel to use it. It just makes it easier to play with the code without recompiling the whole kernel. HTH. 3.x and 4.x is definitely way too old!

Yup, didn't work.

That won't be for me for a long while, then, no spare time enough to
deal w/ kernel 5.x here.
