blacklisting a soundcard? [FIXED]
How do I go about doing this. I need to blacklist my onboard soundcard because it conflicts with my audigy card on boot. Sometimes my audigy card is detected and used and other times the onboard card is used. I did this a while back while using ubuntu but can't remember how I went about doing this. Thanks for any help.

Thanks, I feel a bit dumb now, way easier than I was thinking. I guess next I will read through these files a bit more carefully. Worked great by the way.

I tried that in my borther's computer. same situation. disabling the soundcard in the bios just made sound go away; it didn't make the soundcard disappear for linux.
(by the way, i was ubuntu, not arch, but i won't trust the bios that much after this.)

Re: blacklisting a soundcard? [FIXED]
What pajaro said, my onboard sound card is disabled in bios. The udev system just picks it up anyways cause it can still see it. But blacklisting is easy so its not a problem.
