From what I remember jack was a must in combination with several audio cards. But it is also irrelevant to the original problem Now if you open pavucontrol you should see your multiple sound cards. is the one you want to use as default set as "fall back"? Otherwise it seems it is indeed a problem with kmix and should be handled as a bug or you try to index the cards and the one becomes 1st from the OS perspective. cat /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf options snd_hda_intel index=0 options snd-usb-audio index=1 regards
