Hi,
An update to this problem...
The Mia now appears to work every time I boot up, but I only managed to do this by disabling the built in Intel sound card in the BIOS. Not an ideal solution.
When both cards were enabled, the Mia didn't work on alternate boots, and I found that it wasn't being assigned an interrupt - interruptslist-installed.txt shows the interrupt list when the Mia is working and interruptslist-notinstalled.txt when it isn't working. I can't tell why this is, but lspci always shows Mia in the list.
Does anyone know why the interrupt would be assigned only every other boot? Is this an ALSA question or a question for some other group?
Thanks,
Ed.

The initialization of the card doesn't show up in /var/log/messages when it doesn't work, and when it does work, I do see the initialization. I also have a built-in intel sound card, which it reverts to when the Mia doesn't work.
