That's pretty clear about what's what. I gather I need a line like this
in the alsa file (index=2 to make it the second sound device, yes?):
options snd-usb-audio index=2 vid=0x041e pid=0x3f07
On the other hand, lspci -vn shows me this for the onboard audio controller:
00:1f.5 0401: 8086:24c5 (rev 03)
Subsystem: 1179:ff01
Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 11
I/O ports at 1c00 [size=256]
I/O ports at 18c0 [size=64]
Memory at e0100c00 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=512]
Memory at e0100800 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=256]
Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2
I guess the "8086:24c5" is the two numbers I need, minus the prefatory
"0x"?

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.
Running GNU/Debian Linux ...
use
the vendor and product IDs from lsusb and lspci to give each alsa driver an
index number to make sure that each driver gets put in the same spot each
boot.
in my modprobe.d/alsa file I have:
options snd-usb-audio index=1,2,3
vid=0x08bb,0x0763,0x0c45 pid=0x2902,0x0199,0x1
