Alsa can get confused between modem/soundcards and soundcards. So run either aplay -lLv or cat /proc/asound/cards to look at the devices that alsa knows about. As Nigel stated there, you can add the lines alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1 options snd-emu10k1 index=0 alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio options snd-usb-audio index=1 to /etc/modprobe.d/sound or /etc/modprobe.conf on your system to specify which card becomes which device, changing the snd-??????? entries to reflect your actual devices from the commands above. I don't know enough about how the USB cards work, but it seems strange that a USB card would be probed under PCI. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
