To make sure that each card gets its proper card number even when the
driver modules are loaded in a different order, check that each driver
has the "index" option set in /etc/modprobe.conf, e.g.:
options snd-intel8x0 index=0
options snd-intel8x0m index=1
options snd-usb-audio index=2
* After a reboot the mixer settings are never
restored, all
controls are set to 0. I added alsa to the boot process, and
when shutting down it tells me "Storing mixer levels", but
these do not get restored for any reason. Can anyone tell me
which the file is where alsactl stores the settings?
/etc/asound.state, written by "alsactl store" and read by "alsactl
restore".
Besides the modules.conf,
2.6.x kernels use modprobe.conf
are there further alsa configuration files which I
could delete to
avoid such weird behaviours due to old config files?
No.
Should I have installed drivers of the same version as
the lib?
Usually yes, but when you're using different kernels it's best just to
use the latest lib.
