snd_usb_usx2y doesn't yet support the mixer.

you can ommit above line, cause of lacking mixer support.

Please check out some basic things while the us122 is connected & powered:
What is the output of "lsusb -v" running as root?
Does the USB Light start shining?
What does "ls -al /proc/asound" show?
And "cat /proc/asound/devices" ?
You upgraded to the latest and gratest Planet CCRMA?
FC1?
Better results, if you use other USB-Connector?
Last 80 lines of "cat /var/log/messages" running as root?
