Well, not in the basic ALSA packages. But it should be possible for the
pulseaudio package to install a configuration file that does this.
In fact, there is this:
$ cat /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf.d/99-pulseaudio-default.conf.example
# Default to PulseAudio
pcm.!default {
type pulse
hint {
show on
description "Default ALSA Output (currently PulseAudio Sound Server)"
}
}
ctl.!default {
type pulse
}
$
But it has no effect because its filename extension is '.example' not
'.conf'. It's installed by libasound2-plugins, which contains the
pulseaudio plugins and others.
So maybe the necessary change would be:
- move the pulseaudio ALSA plugins and this config file into a new
binary package
- rename the config file so it's not just an example
- make pulseaudio recommend that binary package
Or alternately:
- move just this config file into a new binary package, depending on
libasound2-plugins
- make pulseaudio recommend that binary package

You can't have everything. Where would you put it?
