I believe that udev/hotplug is responsible for loading the > module. modinfo snd_intel8x0 will show a parameter "index" which you can use to give a card a specific number assigned to it. Useful if you have more devices and want them get a fixed number. The problem you are facing is likely that your cam module gets loaded before the soundcard is identified. So, my workaround would be to blacklist the camera module for the early hardware initialization (udev/hotplug - see /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist or /etc/hotplug/blacklist[.d] or something like that and put the name of the camera module in there) and load it later via /etc/modules or by hand when needed (it may also shorten batterylifetime if activated but unused). This will bring intels' soundcard into first place again. I think I wrote /etc/modutils/sound. Err. It more likely is /etc/modprobe.d/sound? There should be another solution with using the index parameter, but I'm not sure how to do this here. I usually don't use tools like hotplug or udev. > > BTW: simply plugging in the USB device > > after bootup will likely also do it. > > Can't. It's build into the laptop.
