You guys might want to give thinkpad-acpi the parameter "index=5" or some other suitable number to make sure it doesn't shift your soundcards around. Or you can use the "slots" parameter of the "snd" module to make sure your ALSA drivers always land "cards" in the right place (recommended, as it will help you with USB sound cards as well...). Also, if the driver refuses to unload, check if your desktop environment is not doing something idiotic like keeping ALSA devices open for no reason at all other than to waste power and lock modules in place. "lsof | grep /dev/snd" is your friend to find the annoying pests. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them. One disk to bring them all and in the darkness grind them.
