I believe you said this is a USB sound adapter, no?

I've encountered problems with USB devices occasionally; the devices may 
not be identified consistently across reboots, and with some devices with 
external power supplies I've had to power-cycle the device after each 
reboot to get it recognized.


I've done some Googling but have never found any useful answers.

Hmmm. Odd. Could some other sound application be getting a log on the
card before caed runs sometimes and not others?

If jack is present on the machine but not in use, try running jack
when Riv cannot see the card and see if jack can use the card at that
point.

Is pulse in the mix on t his machine?

"AlsaConfig sees it, it's active,"

does rdalsaconfig look different when it doesn't work vs when it

Anyone got any thoughts?


Does the  "server class" machine have an on board sound
card? If so, are they swapping order?

Are you running straight alsa or is jack in the mix?

RDAlsaconfig never changes. Its just RD that cant seem to sustain a reboot.
The rest of the system could care less. aplay and alsamixer see and use it
every time.

Alsa only, no onboard sound. HP DL360 is a 1U xeon server.
