You need to add something like the following to your /etc/modprobe.conf
file.
alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1
options snd-card-0 index=0
options snd-emu10k1 index=0
alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio
options snd-usb-audio index=1
This is telling the kernel to place the sound cards in specific order.
You will have to change the sound cards above to reflect yours. The 0
card is the default.
