This looks more like uaudio module fails to load because it depends
on sound module, which itself then requires ISA bus support in kernel.
The sound.ko shouldn't require ISA when build on ARM.
It might work to compile the drivers into the kernel.
If it uses ISOCHRONOUS, then that's an unrelated problem IMO.
Do all uaudio devices use isochronous endpoints or is it an optional thing?
If it is optional, then he might have a chance.
