I have just upgraded to kernel-2.4.22 and my other USB sound card, 
based on  BurrBrown 2702, works now (primary one is VIA82). In fact 
this is an FM-transmitter LineX. As I do not want to use only one of 
the cards all the time, I would like to learn how to select which one 
will be used for sound output.

LineX card can be hotplugged, but only once between reboots. And then 
I have to manually configure for example XMMS, to use oss or Alsa, to 
route the output to the correct card.

It looks pretty much unpredictable what happens with the cards, and I 
have to reboot sometimes to get back to via82 sound. I did not 
configure anything yet, but I have read stuff on Alsa Wiki and it 
seems there should be a way to write a script or something, that 
would enable me to select cards.

Can anybody walk me through the topic please, because I believe this 
was not discussed before (point me if yes)? I would put my learnings 
together in the Alsa wiki for the others. (here is what i did for 
OSWorkflow project 
http://wiki.opensymphony.com/space/OSWorkflow+Running+the+Example+App#tomcat41 
)

I have some specific questions but first of all, what would be a 
general approach here?
 
Bests.
