https://wiki.debian.org/ALSA ? /etc/modprobe.d/sound options snd-usb-audio index=0 options snd_hda_codec_hdmi(or whatever it's called)=1 options snd(etc...)=2 There's a plethora of info on sound card ordering, but much of it is obsolete I'm afraid. Whether making the usb dongle the default card by creating a ~.asoundrc file: pcm.!default { type hw card 2 } ctl.!default { type hw card 2 } would work or not I dunno. I read that for the Lenovo to get an external usb sound card working the card must be indexed as card 0 (numero uno). > Thanks, > > Rodolfo > > -- "Until the Lion learns to write, tales of the hunt shall always glorify the Hunter." — African proverb
