Hi there is no /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf on my system but there is a /etc/modprobe.d/sound so I edited that as you suggest, and removed my entry from /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base so far it seems to work I haven't tried disconnecting the webcam though.... I was just hoping that there might be a more automatic way for this to happen when people install alsa rather than editing conf files I'm happy for you to close the bug. Hopefully folks will find it when they have the same problem that I had. thanks, Philip
