 Replying to [comment:10 howl]:
 > There isn't a way in ALSA API to detect this and automatically do it?

 No there isn't. ALSA has a very weak enumeraton API that includes no
 information about which device striign are exclusive to each other and
 which ones aren't.

 > If not, If you think that could be possible I can issue it myself to
 their bug tracker and see if the have time to do it. Make this could be
 fantastic, automatically have all the possibilities that a certain card
 have, only need to configure manually situations like analog digital
 switches for the same connector or other similar situations.

 Good luck with that!
