Bug Description
1. Install PCMCIA sound card and observe it working.
2. Put on-board sound chip driver in /etc/modprobe.
3. Observe that nothing works.
My internal and external chipsets are entirely different (crappy SiS chipset vs SB Audigy 2 ZS Notebook), meaning there are no overlapping kernel modules.
This is the actual problem: the modules for the PCMCIA sound card are actually loading fine. The GUI, however, seems too stupid to detect hotplugged audio devices independently.

Problem goes away if user account is erased. Maybe this is a problem with how user settings are stored vs changing hardware.
