I would suggest you add a asound.conf file with your plughw 0 0 thing in it
per the format which I can't remember right now or I would write it here.
 Should be easy.  You should probably add a mixer statement for future
releases as well.  The file should be simple with just 10 lines or so for
the two entries.  You don't need all the stuff you will find in the various
wikis
