Comment (by waddlesplash):
Well, deleting the nodes immediately will be non-ideal too, because then
users will wonder why they have a device in /dev but it does not appear in
Media preferences. It is also the case that nodes which fail init should
not leave ports open, I guess, so those two fixes combined should improve
things.
However, I have a better patch for this case: simply skip initializing
inputs or outputs when one or the other is invalid or not available, as in
the case of usb_audio. I will push it shortly.
