Module snd-usb-caiaq
--------------------
This module supports multiple cards.
+ Module snd-virtuoso
+ -------------------
+
+ Module for sound cards based on the Asus AV100/AV200 chips,
+ i.e., Xonar D1, DX, D2, D2X, HDAV1.3 (Deluxe), and Essence STX.
+
+ This module supports autoprobe and multiple cards.
+
Module snd-vx222
----------------
In this example, the interwave card is always loaded as the first card
(index 0) and ens1371 as the second (index 1).
+Alternative (and new) way to fixate the slot assignment is to use
+"slots" option of snd module. In the case above, specify like the
+following:
+
+options snd slots=snd-interwave,snd-ens1371
+
+Then, the first slot (#0) is reserved for snd-interwave driver, and
+the second (#1) for snd-ens1371. You can omit index option in each
+driver if slots option is used (although you can still have them at
+the same time as long as they don't conflict).
+
+The slots option is especially useful for avoiding the possible
+hot-plugging and the resultant slot conflict. For example, in the
+case above again, the first two slots are already reserved. If any
+other driver (e.g. snd-usb-audio) is loaded before snd-interwave or
+snd-ens1371, it will be assigned to the third or later slot.
+
+When a module name is given with '!', the slot will be given for any
+modules but that name. For example, "slots=!snd-pcsp" will reserve
+the first slot for any modules but snd-pcsp.
