I have two sound cards:
SiS 7012 (C-Media Electronics CMI9739 AC97 Codec) - 'snd_ich'
Genius Sound Maker Value 5.1 (CMedia CMI8738) - 'snd_cmi'
The first is integrated in the motherboard, and it is detected first and
used as the default output device (pcm0). The second it detected after
the first, so it is used as the second output device (pcm1).
I want to use my second sound card as the default output device. I tried
using the loader.conf variables *_after and *_before, but they
always load them before booting the kernel, so the integrated card is
detected first and assigned to the default output device (pcm0). So I
have the drivers as modules, and load the driver for the second card
when booting the kernel, and then from the command line I load the
driver for the integrated card.
Is it possible to put the sound card PCI addresses manually in
'device.hints'? How?
Here is the relevant output of 'pciconf -vl' (after loading the
drivers in the desired order):

I am posting this question again because I did not get a response. If I
should ask this question somewhere else please inform me.
I'm no expert but...
You now have the sound cards ni the order you want by loading the CMedia via
the kernel and the SiS manually.
Can you add the SiS one via /etc/rc.conf?
Add kldload snd_sis (or whatever the SiS sound module is called)
or by adding the relevant bits to /boot/loader.conf
eg
sound_load=YES
snd_SiS_load=YES
(or whatever the SiS sound module is called)
or if none are complied into the kernel, try either method above with the
module loads listed in the order you want them.
hey, it might even work :-)
