Bug#524196: [Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#524196: USB webcam randomly disables soundcard

 Hi
 there is no /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf on my system
 but there is a /etc/modprobe.d/sound
 so I edited that as you suggest, and removed my entry from
 /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
 so far it seems to work
 I haven't tried disconnecting the webcam though
 I was just hoping that there might be a more automatic way for this to
 happen when people install alsa rather than editing conf files
 I'm happy for you to close the bug.  Hopefully folks will find it when
 they have the same problem that I had.
 thanks, Philip

Bug closed.

Thanks for cooperation
Elimar

 If a logitech pro 9000 webcam (with built in microphone) is plugged in
 then the Intel motherboard sound card will randomly fail on boot.
 This will appear in dmesg
 [   10.698812] cannot find the slot for index 0 (range 0-0), error: -16
 [   10.698812] Intel ICH: probe of :00:1e.2 failed with error -12

 Solution.
 Edit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
 add this to the file

 # Keep webcam from being loaded first
 options snd_usb_audio index=-2
 
 snd-usb-audio covers more than only a webcam. There are snd cards
 supported bei that driver which one wants to be the first card. So in
 your case a file /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf which encloses:
 
 alias snd-card-0snd-yourdriver
 options snd-yourdriver  index=0
 alias snd-card-1snd-usb-audio
 options snd-usb-audio index=1
 
 were snd-yourdriver is your prefered driver, should do the job.
 
 See also /usr/share/doc/alsa-base/README.Debian.gz.
 
 Please let me know whether this works for you so we can close this
 bug then ;-)
