In my computer I have two sound cards, one on-board VIA something (ac 97) and one Sound Blaster Live (emu10k1). I only use the Sound Blaster card so naturally I have no speakers connected to the internal ac97 one. When I run sndconfig it only finds the via card, and won't let me choose to configure the other one (it's a PCI card so it should be detected) Furthermore, the conf.modules file I had after the first bootup listed both cards, but when I run sndconfig I only get one
