Assuming you're running kind of a Debian, you can create as root a
file called /etc/modprobe.d/sound with these content:

alias snd-card-0 snd-powermac
options snd-powermac index=0
alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio
options snd-usb-audio index=1 

You're forced to this kind of solution when using a USB MIDI interface
which is usually detected as sound card 0 but doesn't have any sound
capability!

Cordially, Ismael
