I'm sorry if this is in English, but I keep on running alsaconf and every time I reboot the computer, I loose the siund configuration.
P.S. I did use alsactl store command.

I do have two soundcards. The one that I don't want to use is an nvidia nforce 2 that is integrated into the motherboard, and the one I want to use is a soundblaster with an emu-10k1 processor.

Maybe the solution is to disable your onboard sound card via a jumper on the mainboard or by disabling it in your BIOS.

Thanks. But (please don't laugh) I locked myself out of my BIOS, so I can't use that option unless you can tell me where I can get an easy to use BIOS Flasher, and if that fails, could you please tell me where that jumper would be? Thanks.

You dont need BIOS access until you have write protected it. But every board has a CLR CMOS jumper or something similar. Just look into your manual.

For your BIOS wait for an answer by some more specialized person and you should say what type of BIOS you have (brand, version). But Kano is right, just try to reset your BIOS to the default values. Of course all changes which you have maybe done are lost then. For your mainboard you should have some documentation at hand which describes how to change specific settings. If not then Google may help finding the necessary information.

Thanks guys. I'll try that. My bios is a pheonix award bios v6.0

Hello,
I've had the same problem. My solution was to unload the soundonboardmodul (rmmod "module") and to write the module in the blacklist.
After that alsaconf, alsactl store and load alsa while boot with knxcc (for a last time )
Maybe it's not the most elegant solution, but it works and I have sound.
Regards

PS: Maybe you must make a new configuring in the software you use (xmms, amarok, etc...)
