Hello, I was having problem with detection of my audio devices during a reboot when a USB headset was connected. A kind soul had suggested what to do in one of my earlier queries about this.
So here is what I did: 1. Appended this to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base ------------------------------------------------------- #added by HS, 20090223, to prevent MS usb headset from getting number 0 #options snd-usb-audio index=1 alias snd-card-0 snd_ens1371 alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio alias snd-card-2 snd-usb-audio alias snd-card-3 snd-usb-audio #for the PCI audio card options snd_ens1371 index=0 #for MS LifeChat LX-3000 USB headset, Logitech A-0356A USB headset options snd-usb-audio index=1,2 vid=0x045e,0x046d pid=0x070f,0x0a01 --------------------------------------------------------- Now, while rebooting with the LX-3000 USB headset connected, I get this: $> aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: AudioPCI [Ensoniq AudioPCI], device 0: ES1371/1 [ES1371 DAC2/ADC] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: AudioPCI [Ensoniq AudioPCI], device 1: ES1371/2 [ES1371 DAC1] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 1: default [Microsoft LifeChat LX-3000 ], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 The order shown above is now what I get consistently. Earlier I never got the AudioPCI if LX-3000 was connected while rebooting. But why is LX-3000 named as default here and how do I make sure that the AudioPCI is the default always? Thanks. -- Please reply to this list only. I read this list on its corresponding newsgroup on gmane.org.
