It sounds like it is getting changed when you plug in the USB sound device. This would be especially true if you booted with the USB sound device, and later removed it. I missed the start of this thread, so I do not know if your sound card is being detected as card 0, or card 1. (aplay -L) If it is card one, then the USB sound device is probably being dected as card 0. One nice thing about PA is that you can select where the sound output of a specific program goes. You can have the system sounds go to your sound card, and HF radio going to the USB sound card. I hope this helps.
