Hello, all:
Since there isn't a mic input jack on Mac Mini, I have to use a USB headset. If I leave it plugged in when booting, the HDA Intel onboard device doesn't even show up any more in my ALSA device selector -- only USB audio devices are present. So, I have to remember to unplug the headset before booting, in order for the onboard audio to still show up and work (we like music).
I don't think this is desired behaviour -- both devices appear to work correctly when I plug in the USB headset after the boot.
I'm not sure if this is the same as https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=219023, but the symptoms do seem similar.
Can anyone confirm with other devices? This is on F7.
I've had the same problem with FC6 and F7 with the USB mick on my Webcam. (Plus I have two sound cards on my machine) There's an annoying solution to this problem: Manually edit the modprobe.conf file and set the primary sound card while keeping them all plugged in during boot.
E.g. alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1 options snd-card-0 index=0 options snd-emu10k1 index=0 alias snd-card-1 snd-intel8x0 options snd-card-1 index=1 options snd-intel8x0 index=1 alias snd-card-2 snd-usb-audio options snd-card-2 index=2 options snd-usb-audio index=2
