Package: libasound2-data
Version: 1.1.7-2
Many people use Alsa only with Debian and with Hifi speakers connected to
analog out of the motherboard. However the audio device 0 is hdmi audio and you
need to change it in /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf:
defaults.ctl.card 2
defaults.pcm.card 2
Many other Debian packages asks confirmation from the user when updating
configuration files. The libasound2-data package should do the same.

This points you to know that the kernel is responsible to set the
order of your soundcards. /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf didn't changed
since 1.1.6 for defaults./(ctl|pcm), though.
For a solid solution for your problem please consult
https://wiki.debian.org/ALSA => troubleshooting.
As this is not a bug of any alsa package I close it hereby.
