Focusrite Scarlett 6i6 hard times

The answers to this question that are all around the forums already outdated.

I'm running a clean install of Ubuntu Studio 15.10. With Jack Control or aplay -l I can see it's there. But I can get no sounds from the audio interface.

The Focusrite website says it should work. The Scarlett 2i2 is well known to work easily and flawless. But there are a lot of post asking about how to make the 6i6 work in Linux. The answers are from turning wifi off (which I did) to installing new kernel (which I don't need)

Any directions out there?

best regards, skmecs

Thanks for the link theodorn

Answering myself, here's a direction if anyone out there is having the same problem.

I tried KXStudio running it from the USB-stick. It worked! I could have sound coming from the audio interface. So I installed it. I would rather stay on Ubuntu Studio, though.

bests, skmecs

editing for future reference: I could solve most of the problems I had using somehing rather old: the Gnome Alsa Mixer. So I could use Ubuntu Studio smoothly. I'm sorry I didn't follow the good practices protocol of when I posted this issue, but the problems I had seams to be already solved at the present moment.
