I sense I am not being very clear, so I will try once more:

As I initially reported, alsa-base already ships /etc/modprobe.d lines
that claim to prevent snd-usb-audio devices becoming the default sound
device. As I also reported, this works when I have only one snd-usb-
audio device, and fails when I have two, one of which is a web cam.

You say that "The proper way to fix this symptom" is [some other way].
But that doing this will "aggravate people wanting their usb headsets to
be the default/primary sound device".

Hence, are you suggesting that the current line in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-
base.conf

options snd-usb-audio index=-2

should not be there, as this also prevents (at least, in some
situations) a USB headset from being a default/primary sound device?

It seems there's at least one point to clear up here before the bug is
closed, as if the order should not be messed with at all, then it
follows that the current line should also be removed.
