[Cialug] alsa snd-atiixp with bt878

[Tom Pohl]

I'm all cool with the cabling, the problem is getting invalid pcm when 
accessing the different dsp devices.  I think I may have gotten it 
working late last night, but I was working from upstairs and it is 
plugged into the tv downstairs and I was too lazy to go see.

I had to manually setup the 2 cards in modules.conf in the order that 
seems to work:
alias snd-card-0 snd-bt87x
alias snd-card-1 snd-atiixp
(and all the other junk that goes along with it)

I think the root of the problem is that alsaconf doesn't try to setup 
more than 1 device.
