default sound card

[zmuth734]

Anyone know how to set up my usb sound card (its for a pair of headphones) so whenever I hook it up it becomes the default sound card?

I can set it up once in the sound settings:



but it goes away after I disconnect the usb sound card and then reconnect it later.

It goes back to this:



Let me know thanks!

Connect both cards. In a terminal, type:

sudo asoundconf list

This will print out all sound cards you have. Then, use this command to set your default choice.

sudo asoundconf set-default-card CARD

where CARD is your desired card as printed out by the first command.

Hey thanks!

I get this when I type in sudo asoundconf list:

Names of available sound cards:
ICH6
default

I'm assuming default is the name of the c-media usb headphone set?
