First off, check /proc/asound/cards whether snd-emu10k1 driver is
really loaded on the first slot.  I guess something else occupies the
position.  If yes, a simple solution is to add the following option
for snd module:

	options snd slots=snd-emu10k1

then the first slot is reserved for emu10k1.  Note that this option is
available for 2.6.25 or later kernel.
