Order of sound cards changes
by gregors from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4X6Q8)
Hi there!
My audio amplifier can act as an external sound card. But almost after every second (not just "sometimes") reboot it's not the first but second audio device - so I can't listen to my music or watch tv.
Since I tried a whole bunch of things with /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf I don't think that this is the right place to fix this.
Some years ago I found some kind of "the last, ultimative solution" which consists of entering the order of sound cards in a special file - the problem is I can't find that page again.
If you know what I'm talking about and know the solution ... I hate rebooting.
TIA
Gregor
