If you add options lines in /etc/modutils/sound as follows, you should find that the cards load in the order you want. options snd-intel8x0 index=0 options snd-hdsp index=1 options snd-virmidi index=2 Then run update-modules and /etc/modules.conf will be updated with the options added to it I had a similar problem with my usb midi keyboard being loaded first , and setting the options fixed that. All the best. Nigel.
