Modify the /etc/modprobe.d/sound file to list the emu10k1 driver as the first sound card like this from my file for example. alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1 options snd-emu10k1 index=0 alias snd-card-1 snd-via82xx options snd-via82xx index=1 alias snd-card-2 snd-bt87x options snd-bt87x index=2 If you want you can put the on-board as the second like I have or leave it out entirely. Once modified use "/etc/init.d/alsa reload" without the quotes and the module(s) will be unloaded then reloaded with the new options.
