I have in essence 3 sound cards on one machine. And onboard one, a PCI one, and a USB one. With the below /etc/modprobe.d/ entry only the PCI and USB one show up in /proc/asound/. Alsa version 1.0.15rc3 on a custom 2.6.22.6 kernel. All of the alsa modules load (snd-hda-intel, snd-ice1712, snd-usb-audio) so I don't know why it doesn't give me access to the third card. #----- START ----- /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-custom -----# # ALSA alias char-major-116 snd # OSS alias char-major-14 soundcore # CARD - M-Audio Delta 44 alias snd-card-0 snd-ice1712 alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss # CARD - M-Audio MobilePre alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1 alias sound-service-1-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-1-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-1-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-1-8 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-1-12 snd-pcm-oss ## CARD - nVidia MCP61 alias snd-card-2 snd-hda-intel alias sound-slot-2 snd-card-2 alias sound-service-2-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-2-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-2-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-2-8 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-2-12 snd-pcm-oss options snd major=116 cards_limit=3 options snd-ice1712 index=0 options snd-usb-audio index=1 options snd-hda-intel index=2 #----- END ----- /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-custom -----# And hints on what I might be doing wrong? Or is this a known/set limit of alsa to only support two sound cards at the same time?
