Hi,

How much work would it be to get alsa driver to work nicely with udev, 
so that a specific udev config could be used to decide which sound card 
is card 0 etc.
How about a global config interface whereby userland processes could 
modify the sound card order and possibly provide other general sound 
card related services to userspace. In this way, even if a sound card 
booted up as card 0, we could swap it with card 1 without having to 
unload it.
This might require the device naming in /dev/snd to change so that the 
card number was not included in the device name. Maybe use an extra 
subdirectory for each card, much like the /proc filesystem uses.

James
