Hi, i'm using a usb headset with a external power source. If I turn on my computer before connecting the headset my alsa deas not recognize the device.
Sometimes i forget to put on the headset first, so i need to reboot!

How it was being done in Debian?

On Debian, and other systems: /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart

udev will automatically probe your hardware at boot, loading the corresponding kernel module for your audio card.

What about manually loading the module?

You are probably thinking about unloading and reloading the ALSA kernel modules.
