How to switch audio hardware source
Hi everyone.
I think my sound on my motherboard does not work. No sound from front or back panel. Bummer. To get around this I bought a plug and play: Creative Labs Sound Blaster Play! 3 external USB Sound Adapter. No linux support from what I can tell.
Knoppix 8.2 does recognize it.

Works great in Windows.

Cool it shows up, but it gives me no sound.
The weird thing is that when I run a speaker test I can hear it!
speaker-test -c 2 -D hw:1
I didn't expect anything, since the USB has no Linux support.
I was wondering how I could try and default from hw:0 (motherboard sound) to hw:1 (Creative Labs) on boot up. Or even test it using modprobe somehow.
Thanks!
