[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#585488: Clarification on getting a USB device to be your primary soundcard

I'm still a little confused about what to do here to get my usb UA-25EX
to appear!
(I reported a similar bug which has been merged with this one: Bug#587585)

I created a file /etc/modprobe.d/local.conf as described, and reloaded
the alsa modules, but still had no soundcards in /proc/asound/cards.
(I didn't try rebooting, though - I needed to do other stuff at the time)

Do I need to edit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf to comment out the -2
index for snd-usb-audio ?

Also, I am puzzled by the filenames: This bug report mentions
"local.conf", but the Debian README refers to "alsa-local.conf" and
"sound.conf".

Which is the correct one I need to create? Does it matter?

Thanks!
