[TriLUG] ALSA and card ordering

[Andrew Perrin]

Hey gang. I just upgraded my kernel from 2.4.24 to 2.6.8 and in general
things are working fine. But somehow the order of the two sound cards in
my machine got switched. That's a problem because the one that's now
"first" is actually the sound subsystem of my TV-in card, and doesn't have
any way of playing sound to the speakers. So the system beep, RealPlayer,
etc. (apps that don't have a specific way of specifying card 1) don't
work.

Any ideas on how to tell the system to load the real sound card as card0
and snd-bt878 as card 1?

Thanks.
