The problem is that the drivers aren't loaded in any set order during boot. This is not a bug, it's a feature of the Linux kernel. Luckily you can give the drivers index numbers so that they'll assume the same order every time no matter which one is loaded first. This will mean you'll always have fixed ALSA device numbering, too. Assuming you're using a 2.6 series kernel and have built the drivers as kernel modules, add these two lines in /etc/modprobe.conf (or create that file if it doesn't exist): options snd-usb-audio index=0 options snd-hda-intel index=1 (Notice that snd-usb-audio and snd-hda-intel are what I use for my Terratec USB sound card and Intel HD Audio chip, you'll need to replace them with whatever modules you use. Also notice that when some HOWTOs instruct you to modify modules.conf instead of modprobe.conf they're referring to systems with 2.4 series kernels.) If you have the drivers built-in, you can still assign index numbers to them by adding something like this to the boot command (in GRUB or LILO): snd-usb-audio.index=0 snd-hda-intel.index=1 Again you'll need to edit that to suit your needs.
