M-Audio MobilePre USB Audio Box Stopped Working Since Being Reconnected

[ConfusedNewb]

I have an M-Audio MobilePre USB audio box that has recently ceased to work. It was working since the installation of Fedora 7 (when the audio box was plugged in). I recently removed it from the USB port to plug in an external drive. When I plugged the audio box back into the SAME port, it won't come up as an option as an audio device. I have been around google and some sites but everything I find on it, when I do find something, is unresolved. I have noticed it seems to be common that unplugging the box results in it no working when plugged back in. It is located at /proc/bus/usb/001/007. The manufacturer does not offer linux drivers and I can't find any anywhere else. After fixing lsusb (it would say unknown command), it gave me this output for the device:

I would think the "unknown" manufacturer and product are M-Audio and MobilePre, respectively. Someone please help me with this. I have been without music for quite a while now, which is a fact that is getting annoying when trying to fix other problems. If anyone needs any more info, just ask. I would really like to get this fixed without having to reinstall the OS. Thanks in advance for any help. I would REALLY appreciate it.

Update: While searching around, I came across the command

strace -eopen alsamixer

I had recently installed an alsa mixer package with yum so I tried the command. It gave me this output:

open("/etc/ld.so.cache", O_RDONLY)      = 3
open("/lib/libncurses.so.5", O_RDONLY)  = 3
open("/lib/libasound.so.2", O_RDONLY)   = 3
open("/lib/libm.so.6", O_RDONLY)        = 3
open("/lib/libdl.so.2", O_RDONLY)       = 3
open("/lib/libpthread.so.0", O_RDONLY)  = 3
open("/lib/libc.so.6", O_RDONLY)        = 3
open("/lib/libtinfo.so.5", O_RDONLY)    = 3
open("/etc/alsa/alsa.conf", O_RDONLY)   = 3
open("/etc/asound.conf", O_RDONLY)      = 3
open("/dev/snd/controlC0", O_RDONLY)    = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/dev/aloadC0", O_RDONLY)          = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device

If anyone has any pointers or anything helpful, PLEASE post it. This silence is killing me. I keep seeing stuff about a file asound_card.conf but I don't have this file in my etc folder. Could this have something to do with it?

EDIT- I would appreciate even just a command to mount /proc/bus/usb/*port*/*device* as an audio device. Even if I would have to do it every reboot, I just want audio now to listen to while trying to fix my tons of other stuff.

I had another idea. The initial installation of Fedora 7 (my current OS) detected and installed the audio box. Is there some way I can run the script that did that without reinstalling the whole OS?
