[LAU] (no subject)

Hi folks, My main question is, how can I tell pulse audio to use one card, the same card always, for system sounds? My goal is to have pulse audio grab control of a particular sound card on startup. Right now it seems to be random which it will grab. I have three sound cards in my machine running ubuntu 13.4. There is an onboard sound chip--which I want pulseaudio to use, a s ound blaster live-which I'm not using now, and my delta 1010lt which I have jack configured to use. . At startup, I want pulse audio, and alsa to grab control of the onboard sound chip for system sounds--which include speech output because I can't see. The jack part of it is taken care of. I have a script that loads jack with the delta.
