Another way is to set /etc/asound.conf the way you want.

My one looks like this:
pcm.!default {
    type hw
    card Audigy2
}
ctl.!default {
    type hw
    card Audigy2
}

which sets my audigy2 to default sound card at boot time.

Look at /proc/asound/cards for the exact string to put
into the asound.conf.
