[PD] The dwc_otg.speed=1 issues on RPI with keyboards

[Ivica Bukvic via Pd-list]

Boot rpi without the fix, connect the soundcard, and test its audio output.
If it crackles, or simply doesn't work, then you know it doesn't work
without the fix. For good measure you can also try input (e.g. use pd's
audio tester patch).

Regarding alternative soundcards, you can also try
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812186035 (approx.
$8.50, tiny form factor). We got these for both rpi orchestra and a 50 rpi
installation and it works perfect.
