2.6.39.2: alsa question: usb sound/card shows up as mixer1/audio1?

Hi,

Is this a simple udev issue or something else?
I bought two of these but they are actually different devices, on one host 
it works ok, on the other, I get this:

p34:~# dmesg|grep -i audio
[   15.499078] usb 2-2.4: Product: C-Media USB Audio Device

On the working host:
$ cat /proc/asound/cards

$ aumix

aumix:  error opening mixer: No such file or directory

Any clue why one is mapped to [1] and the other [0], where the one that is 
[0] works properly and the [1] does not?

Justin.
