Hrm. Perhaps I'm showing my ignorance in the contents of these files.
Currently my .asoundrc has:
# ALSA library configuration file
# Include settings that are under the control of asoundconf(1).
# (To disable these settings, comment out this line.)
</home/brian/.asoundrc.asoundconf>
and my .asoundrc.asoundconf has:
ALSA library configuration file managed by asoundconf(1).

# MANUAL CHANGES TO THIS FILE WILL BE OVERWRITTEN!

# Manual changes to the ALSA library configuration should be implemented

As as example, when I go to another machine this is the type of error I
get:
$ gvim
ALSA lib confmisc.c:670:(snd_func_card_driver) cannot find card 'Live'
ALSA lib conf.c:3500:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_card_driver returned error: No such device
ALSA lib confmisc.c:391:(snd_func_concat) error evaluating strings
ALSA lib conf.c:3500:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_concat returned error: No such device
ALSA lib confmisc.c:1070:(snd_func_refer) error evaluating name
ALSA lib conf.c:3500:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_refer returned error: No such device
ALSA lib conf.c:3968:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: No such device
ALSA lib pcm.c:2145:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM default
Which seems to be a result of the "defaults.ctl.card Live" line in my
~/.asoundrc.asoundconf file.
But this "defaults.ctl.card" looks like it's a personal preference and
that another user might have a different card (on the machine with the
'Live' card in it) as their default when they are logged on so putting
that into /etc/asoundrc does not seem appropriate.
So how would I restructure the above into /etc/asoundrc so that I don't
get the "cannot find card 'Live'" errors on another machine that does
not have this "Live" card in it?
