I suspect that your hda-intel will be card0, and the audigy LS as card1. I have similar problems with my usb midi keyboard that uses snd-usb-audio. The keyboard ends up as card0, and the Audigy2 soundblaster as card1. I add these lines to /etc/modprobe.d/sound alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1 options snd-emu10k1 index=0 alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio options snd-usb-audio index=1 I suspect something similar will fix your problem. Just change snd-emu10k1 for the audigy driver, which according to the soundcard matrix for the soundblaster LS, looks like ca0106, and change the snd-usb-audio lines for card1 to the driver for the hda-intel. Check out /sbin/lsmod | grep snd for the module names. Something like. snd-ca0106 snd-intel8x0 (I think) Nigel. btw. both cards will be accessible from alsamixer. alsamixer, when you open it will default to card0, and alsamixer -c 1 will open alsamixer with controls for card1. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
