Hi there,

I am trying to understand why gnome-volume-control keeps on
displaying my webcam+mic as: USB Device 0x0471:0x0310 (Alsa Mixer)
I did check usbids and I can find the entry for 471/310. Is there
anything else need to replace the usb ids with the proper name ?

(...)

I wouldn't care so much about that behaviour unless the device isn't
working properly, but anyway, it seems to be getting the name from one of
the udev attributes.
