I supposed so!!!
These two sound cards are probably the cause of the problem.
Both are trying to use the same module driver, snd_hda_intel, and are
battling with each other. This is the reason for the strange behavior
on your system.
So we need to specify the priority of the device in alsa.conf, like
this;
options snd-hda-intel index=0,1 vid=[vender0 id],[vender1 id]
You can get the vender id;
# lspci -nn | grep Audio
The Vender ID of the card you are using should be written as
[vender0 id] and the Vender ID of the other card should be written as
[vender1 id].
(Ex.)
# lspci -nn | grep Audio
00:14.2 Audio device [0403]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) [1002:4383] (rev 40)
01:00.1 Audio device [0403]: NVIDIA Corporation GK208 HDMI/DP Audio Controller [10de:0e0f] (rev a1)
In this example, the upper card's vender id is 1002, the lower card's
vender id is 10de.
Then, reboot.
HTH.
Regards,
