I wonder why a USB audio device should suddenly become the default at all, even if it's the right type(s). SunRays should be using $AUDIODEV, right? For anything else, there ought to be a way that interested apps could find out dynamically about hot-plugged devices, and anything that already has a device probably wouldn't be happy to find its name changing all of the sudden. > >4.
