Not sure what darkice is. But configuring it to "hw:1,0" is a bad idea. You should not use the low-level "hw:xxx" access mode, unless you really know what you are doing. Use the higher level "front:xxx" or so. Also, don't specify more than the card identifier, i.e. don't use "front:xxx,yyy", use "front:xxx". Finally, as I already mentioned, use device names, or control device node paths for opening. Such as: "front:Intel", or "front:/dev/snd/by-path/pci-0000:00:1b.0" or suchlike. This will make things much more robust and independant of device index changes.
