Hello everyone,

recently I updated my kernel from 3.11.x to 3.13.x. After this I was surprised by a new "HDMI" sound device without changing the hardware :roll:
Code:

cat /proc/asound/cards
 0 [HDMI          ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel HDMI
                     HDA Intel HDMI at 0xf0534000 irq 48
 1 [PCH           ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel PCH
                     HDA Intel PCH at 0xf0530000 irq 47


The problem is, that HDMI is now my default soundcard (card 0), against what PCH was alone (card 0) before the update. So timidity, audacious, etc. does not work anymore (mixer failures and such things).

So I am asking myself if there is a method to tell alsa to exchange HDMI and PCH that card 0 is PCH and card 1 is HDMI.

Until now I found the following website: http://alsa.opensrc.org/MultipleCards#Multiple_devices, but I do not understand how to manage the situation that both cards are driven by snd-hda-intel.

It seems to me that I should tell alsa to place the card-numbers of the PCH device(s) in front of the HDMI device(s). But I have no clue how to do this.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance and best regards

Solved the problem.

I made the file "/etc/asound.conf" with the following content:

Code:
defaults.ctl.card 1
defaults.pcm.card 1
defaults.hwdep.card 1
defaults.rawmidi.card 1
defaults.timer.card 1


Thats it. Everything works well now.
