Thanks Ralf, I already have that:
$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
options snd slots=snd_usb_audio,snd_hda_intel
options snd_usb_audio index=0
options snd_hda_intel index=1
This way, the interface index is static, the question is:
How do I get:
if USB_device_is_present then
default := UA25
else
default := PCH
The other, less important question is, what the fuck does this:
$ cat /etc/asound.conf
defaults.ctl.card 0
defaults.pcm.card 0
defaults.pcm.card 0
defaults.pcm.card 1
defaults.pcm.card 1
Something overwrites asound.conf with stuff like this. The order is
pretty much random. Not sure the number of lines is constant either.
The result is that it is unpredictable which device is the default.
Luckily there is ~/.asoundrc, but I'd still like to know what the hell
is going on.

It would be sufficient if the default interface
was properly set on
boot or resume. It would probably not hurt if it was set whenever a
usb audio device gets plugged in. I'm not quite sure which mechanism
allows me to do that. ALSA alone? Udev?
Default by default is hw:0 and you can ensure that hw:0 is always
reserved for the same device.
$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
# ALSA module ordering
options snd slots=snd_hdspm,snd_ice1712,snd_ice1712
You could add snd_usb_audio as first device, so hw:0 would be reserved
for an USB device, even if it's not connected. For me hw:0 is reserved
for a RME card and hw:1 and hw:2 are reserved for Envy24 cards, even
if I e.g. remove the Envy24 driver, an additional connected device,
e.g. an USB device, becomes hw:3 and not hw:1.
