Thanks, but that didn't help, either. I even tried deleting asound.state 
and rebooting, but no luck.

I ran alsaconf, let it find the Audiophile and modify modprobe.d. That 
put the Audiophile in as hw:0 and appears to have made it the ALSA default.

I'm glad that Linux audio is so straightforward to set up.
