ALSA Default Card



I recently started having some trouble with ALSA and possibly hotplug.

I noticed some problems with playing sounds and it looks like ALSA has placed my TV card as hw:0,0 instead of the VIA driver (which gets hw:1,0). This is a big problem for OSS based programs since the (record only) TV card gets /dev/dsp. The sound card ends up on /dev/dsp1.

Is there any way to get the sound card as card 0 and the TV card as card 1? I assume hotplug loads snd_bt87x first, when I want it to load snd_via82xx first.

I am running Unstable with kernel 2.6.7-1-k7 on a GigaByte GA-K8VNXP.

ii  alsa-base      1.0.6a-10      ALSA driver configuration files
ii alsa-headers 1.0.6a-10 transitional package that can be safely remo
