Author Etch loads wrong sound device

I have a Realtek AC97 onboard sound-chip and an Audigy Pro soundcard.
Although _disabled_ in the bios, Etch always chooses Realtek as sound
device and not Audigy. The only workaround I found is to run alsaconf
and select the Audigy card. But the next time I boot Etch the same thing
happens, Realtek is the sound device and not Audigy.

Is there a way to slip running alsaconf each time I boot and make Etch
to choose Audigy as the pimary soundcard?

The problem does not exist in Ubuntu 6.06, I noticed it first in Ubuntu
6.10 and the preliminary Feisty Fawn - and now here in Debian Etch. Can
anyone give me an advice?

After running alsaconf, run "alsactl store" to save the settings.
