Hi Arthur,

> After a reboot with no changes made, the audio drivers change places:

Yes, I remember Mitsch ran into this when using multiple soundcards. If 
you want to use the on-board sound, you have to change the module 
loading order:

On the other hand, if you don't need the on-board sound, you could try 
adding the module name to the file /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base-blacklist 
with an entry such as:

blacklist via82xx

...or whatever lsmod says is driving the Via sound chipset.

I'm guessing the file /etc/discover.d/linux-sound-base_noOSS is just 
there to prevent OSS drivers from loading, it doesn't stop ALSA modules 
loading. I wish you could still buy motherboards without these nasty 
soundcards built in!

Cheers!

Daniel
