I wonder if this could have anything to do with a different problem I'm
seeing. I have a HDSP 9652 and a MidiMan 2X2 interface. The HDSP is
installed by alsaconf. The 2X2 is installed usign Fernando's
instructions from the Planet.

When I do a cold boot, the HDSP is always recognized first, and then the
MidiMan comes up as card 2, at least by reading the numbers of the
devices in /dev/snd. However, if I reboot, many times the system makes
the 2X2 card 1 and the HDSP card 2, and that breaks a lot of this
software.

What would cause this to happen and how could I stop it?

I have found that everything seems to work fine if I remember to unplug
the 2X2 when the reboot begins, but sometimes I don't remember and have
to go through one more boot cycle.

Cheers,
Mark
