Ok, which name should we be using here?
cat /proc/asound/cards
0 [Audigy2        ]: Audigy2 - Audigy 4 PRO [SB0380]
                     Audigy 4 PRO [SB0380] (rev.4, serial:0x20071102) at
0x9000, irq 23
1 [Audigy2_1      ]: Audigy2 - Audigy 2 Value [SB0400]
                     Audigy 2 Value [SB0400] (rev.0, serial:0x10011102)
at 0x9400, irq 17
2 [CA0106         ]: CA0106 - CA0106
                     Live! 7.1 24bit [SB0410] at 0x8400 irq 21
3 [CA0106_1       ]: CA0106 - CA0106
                     AudigyLS [SB0310] at 0x8800 irq 22


But alsactl asound.state uses the following names:
state.SB0400 {
state.SB0240 {
state.SB0380 {
state.CA0106 {
state.Audigy2 {

If I clear asound.state, I now get:
state.Audigy2 {
state.Audigy2_1 {
state.CA0106 {
state.CA0106_1 {

This must have been a change to alsactl. I think that using Audigy2_1
etc. is a much better idea than using something like SB0400.

I don't believe my changes to emu10k1 caused this to change. It was
something independent that changed.
