The sound card configuration utility of your distribution should allow
you to set the cards' order.

Alternatively, you can configure the card order yourself by setting
module options, in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa.conf or wherever your
distribution puts them:

  options snd slots=snd-hda-intel,snd-ens1731

(or whatever the driver name of your onboard device is)
