Can you post the output of cat /proc/asound/cards. You will have to add some lines to your /etc/modprobe.conf to get the cards in order. Under the 2 lines for the hda-intel, add. options snd-hda-intel index=0 You'd add any other options on this line for snd-intel-intel, for example the "model=3stack" one, with a space inbetween each option. Also add to your modprobe.conf the following lines for the ensoniq card. alias snd-card-1 snd-ens1371 options snd-ens1371 index=1 cat /proc/asound/cards should now show the hda-intel as card0, and the ensoniq card as card1. The default alsamixer will be for card0, and starting alsamixer as. alsamixer -c 1 will display the mixer settings for the ensoniq card. I can't help much with getting the hda-intel working. There are so many variations of it, that it can be hideous to get working irrespective of all the fine work that the alsa guys have done to get it working on different machines/motherboards. Will you let us know which machine/model you have, alsamixer for the hda-intel should tell you which codec it's using. If you download the latest alsa driver, you can read the ALSA-Configuration.txt doc. There's a load of info for snd-hda-intel in it, but bear in mind it will be for the alsa driver you've downloaded, and some of the model options will not be available for your 1.0.14 driver. http://alsa-project.org/ All the best.
