Thanks Mark.  After studying your config, here is mine:

alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel index=1
options snd-hda-intel model=acer

alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio
options snd-usb-audio index=0

alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1

alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss
alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss

options snd cards_limit=2

I get sound from the USB card but not from the internal card
(snd-hda-intel).  How can I tell the system to turn off the USB card
and turn on the internal card?
