[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#407742: alsaconf does not detect/configure external usb speakers

[prosolutions at gmx.net]

Package: alsa-utils
Version: 1.0.13-2


On a laptop with an internal snd_hda_intel and external usb speakers
(which use snd_usb_audio).  When alsaconf is run it detects only the
internal card.  (It also shows "legacy  Probe legacy ISA (non-PnP)
chips").  

It does this regardless of whether snd_usb_audio is loaded or
unloaded first.  After running alsaconf, snd_usb_audio gets unloaded if
it was loaded previously.

It would be ideal if it would detect both cards and would offer to set
the usb-audio as the first device so that it is used by default for
sound apps.
