Comment(by coling):
It's actually easier than that to change the description. If you run
pavucontrol (assuming it has support for it which is not guaranteed), then
you can just right click on a sink and select "rename".
The problem you get is really that both cards are being detected as being
part of the the motherboard (i.e. built in).
There is possibly something you can do with udev to stop this happening
for one card, but I'm not sure and would have to read over the code which
I can't do right this minute.
Ultimately I think this is a duplicate of http://pulseaudio.org/ticket/723
It doesn't seem to affect too many people overall (I've not hear anyone
mention it for ages) but it's obviously still a problem.
When you just see "PulseAudio Sound Server" in Phonon (note that it's NOT
a backend, it's listed under devices) then it means that PA itself does
not have the module-device-manager loaded. Simply running start-
pulseaudio-kde will reload this module. It should be run automatically on
login. There is a lot more information on the
http://pulseaudio.org/wiki/KDE page.
