This should probably be better explained:  I have to sound cards: an
intel internal one and an Advanced Logic (AL) one attached to the PCI
bus.  Normally, the internal one is recognized first and then the AL one
one, but I use the following lines in /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf (a file
I created) to have the AL sound card be first (because that's the one I
prefer to use):

alias snd-card-0 snd-als4000
options snd-als4000 index=0

alias snd-card-1 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel index=1

This works as is seen by the /proc/asound/cards file on this system:

[05:22][jose@jose-desktop: /etc/modprobe.d]$ more /proc/asound/cards
 0 [ALS4000        ]: ALS4000 - Avance Logic ALS4000
                      Avance Logic ALS4000 at 0xb400, irq 17
 1 [NVidia         ]: HDA-Intel - HDA NVidia
                      HDA NVidia at 0xfe024000 irq 22
[05:22][jose@jose-desktop: /etc/modprobe.d]$ 

It is also reflected in the sound properties dialog as is seen in the
screen shot I'm attaching,  However, even if I have selected the AL card
in the dialog and then log out.  When I log in the intel card is
*always* selected as is also shown in the screen shot, which is not what
should happen.
