In general, the modern desktops require the sound daemon. I guess it worked casually in your case because the primary card was selected to HD-audio. And this should still work. Try to choose HD-audio as the primary device via pavucontrol. After that (and a few seconds later), the PCM device for C-Media should be released, and you may use other applications with it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
