[Alsa-user] Two soundcards configuration

[Roberto A. <rob...@rj...>]

My system has two sound cards: one Audiophile 2496, default and an on 
board nVidia nForce2 AC97 audio controller.
The default card works perfectly controlled by Envy 24.
How can I select the other card? I tried to mute Audiophile and unmute 
AC97 using envy24 and alsamixer -c1 with no success.
I'm using Slackware 10.1 and asound configuration is as follows:
