We don't normally include CONFIG_USB_AUDIO in our kernel defconfig, so
you'll need to add that.

That branch is quite old. I'd recommend using dizzy.

Deviation (USB microphone) will require some reconfiguration.

I also saw you question on i.mx Community, but haven't had a chance to
respond.

When all else fails, Info at boundarydevices.com should work for you.

The Sabre SD has a different defconfig.
