looking for an alsa/pulseaudio wiz to help me with 2 devices

[fluid]

ive got an nforce4 motherboard and working onboard sound from what i can tell. i also have a usb headset and id love to have them both working in alsa with recognizable names and the ability to switch between the 2 using pulseaudio as needed.

i have both devices working, but the setup i have just seems "flaky"...of course, i didnt do much, its all using hal to do the work, and the rest is handled by alsa & pulseaudio.

is there anyone that can help me make sense enough of alsa configuration to get 2 devices working?
