I have now 2 pci (C-Media) soundcards installed in my computer (FC1), and when I go to the 'soundcard detection' menu item, I can see them both. The problem however, is that it doesn't matter which one I choose, sound will always come via the same soundcard. In all other applications I only see one soundcard. Does anybody know where the other soundcards are 'hidden' ?
Thanks a lot.

Take a look at the output of
cat /pro/asound/cards
the one with the number 0 is the default soundcard; you have to explicit tell you apps which soundcard to use, pointing them to the right alsa device. Do a search on the Alsa-Wiki site for setting up a .asoundrc file for multiple soundcards.

Daneel, thanks for you reply.
I had a look, but I don't have this 'asound' thing. However I do have multiple /dev/dsp* entries.
Furthermore I am not using alsa, because this is not compatible with the software I would like to use.
