I have two sound cards as well. I generally change things directly at the system level. Namely, all this code is using /dev/audio, /dev/mixer and /dev/sound. But these three devices are just links. They normally pointer to /dev/foo0 you can just make them point to /dev/foo1, and be done with it. The good thing is that this fixes all audio apps, not just amarok, without having to tweak anything else.
