Fresh Debian 12 install issue setting default sound card.
 
I am having an issue setting a Creative Soundblaster Audigy Fx sound card as default on the system.

Code:

$ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: SB [HDA ATI SB], device 0: ALC892 Analog [ALC892 Analog]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: SB [HDA ATI SB], device 1: ALC892 Digital [ALC892 Digital]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: HDMI [HDA ATI HDMI], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0 *]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 2: Creative [HDA Creative], device 0: ALC898 Analog [ALC898 Analog]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

I have tried to following this Debian forum post, but not having any success. I am able to set the sound card as the active device in alsamixer, however a

Code:

systemctl --no-p status alsa-{state,restore}
doesn't survive a reboot.I am not sure whether the alternative provided

Code:

/usr/sbin/alsactl -f ~/archive/my_asound,state store
and then restoring settings from ~/.config/autostart/rstrsnd.desktop is a viable alternative. Like the OP, I have no idea what to put in the rstrsnd.desktop file. Help would be appreciated.

Not sure what I did, but it seems to be working now.
