Sounds like you have an extra audio device (usb?) and that it's got
modprobed first. You need something in modprobe.conf (or a file in
/etc/modprobe.d) but I can't remember the exact incantation. Luckily
someone posted exactly what you need to one of the Fedora lists in the
last week ... something like:
alias snd-slot-0 $driver
options $driver index=0
alias snd-slot-1 snd-usb-audio
options snd-usb-audio index=1
This only works when there's only one usb device, though, by the looks of it :-/
I suspect what's really needed is more control over the order they're probed.
