Mytek Stereo192 Not Connecting

[bigmo]

Hello!

Recent install of Snakeoil OS.  Pretty excited to have a Linux-based solution so I can get my old laptop off of the windows train.  However, my Mytek Stereo192 is not playing along.  Here are the details.

Mytek Stereo192 DAC, latest firmware that was available. 
Snakeoil 1.2.1
Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS
Core2 Duo CPU, 4GB RAM (old school laptop)

I installed firmware from this thread: https://www.snakeoil-os.net/forums/Threa...ight=Mytek
Also tried the troubleshooting steps posted there as well, unfortunately to no avail.  

The Music Player page shows only the following two ALSA output devices:
STAC9228 ANALOG (HW:0,0)
STAC9228 DIGITAL(HW:0,1)

So the Mytek DAC is not showing up.  

Two things I am also seeing:
When I first added the Mytek tar and mytekusb2-generic.fw files nothing happened, so I logged directly into the machine and instantly got this message:
Checking for ALSA Mytek device
Inserting module
Failed to insert module snd_usb_mytek

I rebooted the machine (from the webapp) with the dac being turned off.  Once the app started I turned on the DAC and got these messages:
usb 6-1: device desriptor read/64, error -71
usb 6-1: device desriptor read/64, error -71
usb 6-1: device desriptor read/64, error -71
usb 6-1: device desriptor read/64, error -71
usb 6-1: device not accepting address 4, error -71
usb 6-1: device not accepting address 5, error -71
usb usb6-port1: unable to enumerate USB device

I've tried changing the Native DSD to DOP (as troubleshooting) with no change.  I'm guessing the snd_usb_mytek module is probably the root of the problem, but am unsure how to make it right.  I'm willing to poke around in Ubuntu if necessary.  I've also tried rebooting the app with the DAC powered up and that doesn't seem to change anything.  

Let me know if a diagnostics file is necessary.  Would be happy to send to agent_kith.  

Many thanks!
