I found a file called "sound" in the modprobe.d directory. It already
had an alias setting snd-card-0 to the intel sound
driver. So I added
an
alias to it for the snd-usb-audio. Restarting only
brought up error
messages about usb device 2,2, and killed both the
USB<>MIDI adapter and
my external flash card reader. So I decided to go the
other way -
renamed the sound file to something else and restarted again. Then
everything
came up.
So far, audio has been working since then, but won't really
know for awhile.

use

boot.
in my modprobe.d/alsa file I have:
