sound

I have a mac that is hooked into a sound board, I have external sound card that interfaces between the computer and the soundboard, this works great.

However, whenever the computer restarts it sets the input & output to the 'internal microphone' and the 'built in output'.

I'd like to default to the other soundcard. How can I do this?

I'm running OS 10.6.3
