PulseAudio not seeing my Delta 1010

[millie95]

(Hardy AMD64)

When I run PulseAudio device chooser, it only shows one sound card

System > Preferences > Sound, on the other hand shows both sound cards

Why?

See here (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/178442) for the details of the bug and the workaround. Basically HAL based detection doesnt seem to work too well for slightly exotic cards.
