I had the same issue here with my USB turntable.  It looks
like /etc/modprobe.conf was getting misconfigured in a very strange way.

Take a look at your modprobe.conf and verify that it looks something
like this:

<snip>
options snd cards_limit=8
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio
options snd-intel8x0 index=0
options snd-usb-audio index=1
</snip>

My old version had the intel and usb-audio drivers aliased to the
snd-card alias and at the same index until I made the above changes.

After I changed that, I rebooted and all was well.
