Bug Description

I connected my laptop running current Edgy/AMD64 to my Motorola V300 phone with a USB cable (no bluetooth on this phone). I can upload and download files and ALSA recognizes the phone as a sound device:

$ cat /proc/asound/cards
 0 [IXP ]: ATIIXP - ATI IXP
                      ATI IXP rev 2 with unknown codec at 0xd0804000, irq 10
 1 [Modem ]: ATIIXP-MODEM - ATI IXP Modem
                      ATI IXP Modem rev 2 at 0xd0805000, irq 10
 2 [V300 ]: USB-Audio - Motorola Phone (V300)
                      Motorola Inc. Motorola Phone (V300) at usb-0000:00:13.0-3, full speed

However, it's not possible to play sounds on the phone. Doing " mpg321 -s abilene_full.mp3 |aplay -Dplughw:2" gives no error message, but no sound plays either.
Doing "alsamixer -c2" gives the error message "No mixer elems found".

I was told by Daniel Chen (crimsun) that this means that alsa needs a quirk for this phone. I found a spec sheet at http://developer.motorola.com/?path=1.2.7.38.545 . Please let me know if you need any more information.

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10 alpha?
