This is what I get when I execute pulseaudio -k; and then pulseaudio -vv I can say that when I look at System Settings > multimedia the number of entries under phonon is the highest I have ever seen: M Audio Audiophile 24/96 (ICE 1712 multi) (this one is shaded grey) default (highlighted) default (shaded) M Audio Audiophile 24/96/, ICE1712 multi (IEC958 9S/PDIF) Digital Audio Output) (shaded) M Audio Audiophile 24/96 (ICE 1712 multi) (highlighted) The one time I had sound I also had hw:0.0 but with fewer entries in the list above. I also disabled the onboard card in the bios. But I still get system notifications sounds.
