Mackie ProFX not working on Linux

I had the Mackie ProFX12v3 for a couple months and had to make a custom .asoundrc file for it to work (the two stereo outputs were automatically detected as surround sound).

This .asoundrc created two dmix stereo interfaces:

pcm.!default {
    type plug
    slave.pcm "profx34"
}

pcm.!profx12 {
    type plug
    slave.pcm "profx12"
}

pcm.profx12 {
    type dmix 
    ipc_key 1056
    slave {
        pcm "hw:ProFX,0"
        channels 4
    }
    bindings {
        0 0
        1 1
    }
}

pcm.profx34 {
    type dmix 
    ipc_key 1057
    slave {
        pcm "hw:ProFX,0"
        channels 4
    }
    bindings {
        0 2
        1 3
    }
}

I found some more notes (I'm cleaning my home folder out, so I'm posting things that might be useful...):

0 Front Left = Control Room Left (1)
1 Front Right = Control Room Right (2)
3 Rear Left = Main Left (3)
2 Rear Right = Main Right (4)
