"vid" is short for Vendor ID and is a module option that is used with
the snd-usb-audio module together with "pid" (Product ID) and "index" to
make USB audio devices with certain pids/vids use a fixed card slot.
Maybe you have edited your /etc/modprobe.d/alsabase and added a vid= in
the wrong place?
