It looks like a module loading problem

You should update your modprobe.conf to load the 3 devices and assign a
static card index to each.
You just have to identify what is the module name for the Unitor and then
add it to modprobe.conf.
The snd-powermac cannot be correctly loaded according to your
modprobe.conf, its card index is taken by the AMT8 (module loaded earlier
maybe by some hardware detection mechanism).
If you try to modprobe a snd-card on an index already used, the card is not
registered but the module is visible in lsmod (weird).

your modprobe.conf should look like this:

alias snd-card-0 snd-ice1712
options snd-ice1712 index=0
alias snd-card-1 snd-powermac
options snd-powermac index=1
alias snd-card-2 "snd-unitor"
options "snd-unitor" index=2

Good luck.

David.
