I am not sure about debian, but I think at it is /etc/modprobe.d/sound. You must have something as that: alias snd-card-0 snd-intel810 option snd-module1 index=0 alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio options snd-usb-audio index=1 alias snd-card-2 snd-usb-audio options snd-usb-audio index=2 I am not sure about intel810, you must look for the right module name at the alsa sound cards matrix: http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/ You must run update-modules after editing this file. With this setting, you will get the intel sound card as first sound card, and the 2 usb as second and third sound card. If you want to fix a specific order for the 2 usb sound cards, you must write an udev rule, but I cannot say anything about that because it never worked as expected when trying to do so. This kind of problem with the sound (and other modules) is really bad for linux because multimedia is a great and fast growing part of computer experience, and that with every OS. Linux must really fix this to be able to compete on the desktop market. The center of the problem is at it is the responsibility of the distribution to fix this, and at it is no unified way. Maybe at a Debian's user can respond to you if this explanation is not enough. Or try in a debian forum or email list. Another problem with alsa and most linux distributions is their almost total lack of documentation on that subject. All they said is to run alsaconf, but it will configure only the first sound card, and it is always a risk at it will not work as expected because of udev loading another sound card before the one configured with alsasound. It is really a shame when it is multimeia everywhere, and I am very polite. So check if it is a debian multi sound card configuration documentation. If not, fill a polite bug report on debian bugzilla. Another solution is to try gentoo, the docs are the best of all the linux distribution I know. Sorry for my English.
