Hi,
if the USB device id is different for the two usb devices then you might
just write a custum udev-rule that loads the snd-usb-audio module with
different card index parameters..

That's my problem, the keyboards are identical models and the only thing
that
will distinguish them is the slot they are plugged into. I haven't got
as far
as plugging both in and looking if there is a correlation between the
information
provided by lsusb and the Alsa slot id. I think I can get them on
separate hubs
which might be useful. I know very little about what goes on when
devices are
initialised. If all else fails, I'll have to plug one into an Arduino
and use
that to shift the channel number, but I had hoped to avoid going that far!

If the keyboards are on different USB buses you can use that difference
to distinguish between them. Like Florian said you can use Udev for
this. Did a quick search and this might be useful:

lsusb can tell you which keyboard lives on which USB bus, bear in mind
that different USB ports can live on the same bus. So the trick is to
find out if there are USB ports living on different buses and connecting
the keyboards to those specific ports.
Best,

Thanks, Jeremy, that should be sufficient for my purposes!
Great guy!
