What distribution? Any reason you particularly want this handled at the ALSA layer? This seems like the kind of situation that Pulse was intended to handle. In fact I have a similar setup where Pulse defaults to my m-audio PCI card if the USB interface is not connected, if the USB interface is connected it becomes the default audio interface, and if I start jack then pulse connects to jack instead of directly to the ALSA interface. I start jack with qjackctl so I decide on startup which interface I want jack to use. -- Chris Caudle _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
