I understand that this change was made to fix bug 31109, bug 46996, bug 46998 in alsa-driver (1.0.11-5ubuntu1). in the case of a real usb sound card, surely it should be the default sound card. why would i plug one in if i wanted to use the built in sound. in edgy: sam@flute:~$ cat /proc/asound/cards 1 [system ]: USB-Audio - iMic USB audio system Griffin Technology, Inc iMic USB audio system at usb-0000:00:10.0-2, full speed in edgy with the line commented out: sam@flute:~$ cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [system ]: USB-Audio - iMic USB audio system Griffin Technology, Inc iMic USB audio system at usb-0000:00:10.0-2, full speed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/68128/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
