How to set sound card order for nvidia hdmi?

Sound card changes index on reboot, and wiki says to specify it in modprobe, but I can't get it to work for nvidia hdmi.

# lsmod|grep snd_*
snd_hda_codec_hdmi     23672  1 
snd_hda_codec_realtek    60409  1 
snd_usb_audio          93519  2 
snd_hda_intel          24053  2 
snd_hda_codec          94305  3 snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_hda_intel
snd_usbmidi_lib        18744  1 snd_usb_audio
snd_hwdep               6300  2 snd_usb_audio,snd_hda_codec
snd_rawmidi            18479  1 snd_usbmidi_lib
snd_seq_device          5300  1 snd_rawmidi
snd_pcm                74958  4 snd_usb_audio,snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_hda_codec,snd_hda_intel
snd_page_alloc          7185  2 snd_pcm,snd_hda_intel
snd_timer              18966  1 snd_pcm

soundcore               5410  1 snd

which one is the nvidia one?

Re: How to set sound card order for nvidia hdmi?

Show us

cat /proc/asound/cards

This is what I use for ordering the HDA based cards in my system, index=0 is Maudio Audiophile. So you would need to use index=0,1 and use the correct model and probe mask for the nvidia card. Mine is ATI SB Azalia, and a nvidia GT430 with GF108 chip.

options snd-hda-intel index=1,2 model=6stack-dig,auto probe_mask=-1,0x108
