Tried:

pcm.!default {
 type plug
 slave.pcm {
 type hw
 card 1
 device 3
 }
}

sudo alsa force-reload

speaker-test -D default -c2

Still no dice. Looking back through the JYA thread, I think this is
what we tried then. That worked from April 2011 until last week and
12.04. Googling around I can see no end of 12.04 sound threads. Again,
bizarre that I can get speaker-test -Dhw:1,9 -c2 to work but those
settings don't work in asound.conf
