[Bug 48377] Re: Dapper Sound System broken by plugging in a Webcam

[Victor Luchits]

I can confirm this bug. Computers with more than one sound card (in my
case ESI Juli@ and SAA1734) get random sound device list order. This is
extremely annoying. I had to come up with this to make sound on my tv-
tuner to work:

sox -r 32000 -w -t ossdsp /dev/dsp`arecord -l | grep '^card [0-9]:
SAA7134' | awk '$2 == "2:" {print "2"}'` -t ossdsp /dev/dsp`aplay -l |
grep '^card [0-9]: Juli \[ESI Juli@\], device 0:' | awk '$2 == "2:"
{print "2"}'`

because sound devices interchange between /dev/dsp and /dev/dsp2
randomly at reboot. Also, it affects the 'Default sound card' setting in
sound preferences.
