SOLVED: Sound problems when using two sound devices
I have found on the alsa website the solution to this problem. Editing
/etc/modprobe.d/sound the line options snd-emu10k1 index=0 to options
snd-emu10k1 index=-15 did the trick.

That is exactly what I have.
In the kernel .config I have:
...
CONFIG_SND_CA0106=m
CONFIG_SND_VIA82XX=m
...
My lsmod looks in part like:
Module Size Used by
...
snd_pcm_oss 31648 0
snd_mixer_oss 13248 3 snd_pcm_oss
...
snd_mpu401_uart 5440 1 snd_via82xx
snd_ac97_codec 78560 2 snd_via82xx,snd_ca0106
snd_pcm 63496 5
snd_pcm_oss,snd_via82xx,snd_ca0106,snd_ac97_codec
snd_timer 16452 1 snd_pcm
snd_ac97_bus 1792 1 snd_ac97_codec
snd_rawmidi 16992 2 snd_ca0106,snd_mpu401_uart
snd_page_alloc 6856 3 snd_via82xx,snd_ca0106,snd_pcm
...
And my /etc/modprobe.d/sound:
alias snd-card-0 snd-via82xx
options snd-via82xx index=0
alias snd-card-1 snd_ca0106
options snd_ca0106 index=1
I note that on the via8237 I can play simultaneous sounds but on the
ca0106 not.
Other than that it works perfectly.
