Modify the /etc/modprobe.d/sound file to list the emu10k1 driver as the first 
sound card like this from my file for example.

alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1
options snd-emu10k1 index=0
alias snd-card-1 snd-via82xx
options snd-via82xx index=1
alias snd-card-2 snd-bt87x
options snd-bt87x index=2

If you want you can put the on-board as the second like I have or leave it out 
entirely. Once modified use "/etc/init.d/alsa reload" without the quotes and 
the module(s) will be unloaded then reloaded with the new options.
