On the other hand, if you know that you will not want to use the via
ingrated audio, you should normally be able to disable it in the BIOS
(usually in the 'integrated peripherals' sectio IIRC). And so your SB
card will become the first and default card. You may still have
to adjust the modules.conf or similar. Perhaps running alsaconf
should do the trick.
./MiS
