[gutsy] LG USB key wrongly detected as a digital audio device (regression)

Found that this also happens to many on Feisty. I work for a computer memory company and believe I have found, at the very least, a solid lead to pursue. I've tried dozens of flash drives on a few separate installations of Feisty, and have only been able to find this problem in relation to a specific controller chip within the flash drive. It seems to be the controller from Silicon Motion, otherwise seen as SM.

Controllers I have NOT seen this problem with include: Alcor Micro (AU), and US Best (UT).

The SM controller seems to be the only consistent cause for this bug. Most every flash drive manufacturer will use their controller, so I'm willing to bet that the LG drive above an SM controller as well.

This key worked perfectly on Feisty. Not so well on Gutsy.

Please plug in the device and send the output of

  lsusb

from a terminal. Thank you!
