on my laptop sometimes i have to use the internal sound card and

is there a "gentoo way" to make alsa automatically change the default
audio device to the usb card when it's connected and active, and back
to the internal card when it's not?

Hi there guys.
I've been reading the handbook about the FLAGS featrure usage, very
powerfull indeed, but, I just was wondering if there a way to define
some flags for a particular aplication and not in general.
Lets take a real case, mplayer, I'd like to revome some stuff I do not
use/like, for ex
is somebody using the package x11-base/x11-drm for intel's integrated
graphics?
I'd like to see the output of "dmesg |grep -i drm" to see, of i actually
have some advanatge of using it.
With the kernel's own 2.6.25, my "dmesg|grep -i drm" says:
