change default sound card on ubuntu

Hi all

Sorry for late post but i was really busy with some assignments and stuff.

I have tried this on ubuntu 8.04 and 8.10, i have external yamaha sound card installed on my system, to change your default card simply go to Terminal

and type

Quote:

sudo asoundconf list

it will display list of available sound card like for me it displayed
SI7012
YMF724

after thins you just need to use another command that is

Quote:

asoundconf set-default-card YMF724

i have used my sound card name so please replace your sound card name here

after this you need to manually restart your system to apply settings

hope it will solve some sound problems
