Just got an external usb sound card because my internal speakers broke. The new sound card works just fine after plugging it in and going to System Settings > Sound, and then selecting the device. However, I was curious as to whether there was a way to make ubuntu auto-select the device without having to go through System Settings. Can it just be selected upon plugging it in? Any and all help appreciated :))

(ps its running 12.04)
