Re: [PATCH] ALSA: usb-audio: Add Line Out to iterm_names

[zhangheng]

Sorry, this is not a new standard. It's just my personal idea. Can we 
promote

the addition of this, adding this Line Out, so that it can be similar to 
hda,

simplifying the adaptation task of the core outer layer? The jack events

are relatively unified. Otherwise, for the current sound card, the

rear jack event is Speaker, which requires separate adaptation.
