Hi Endolith

The echo firmware is part of the *alsa-firmware *package (check the package
details)
and it isn't in the multiverse because (Quoting medibuntu) "*Medibuntu
(Multimedia, Entertainment & Distractions In Ubuntu) is a repository of
packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal
reasons (copyright, license, patent, etc). *"

There are some licenses issues for echo that prevent it from being in
multiverse.

You can always uninstall the alsa-firmware if you find that it does not
resolve your issue.

HTH
Bill.
