So, this was just the result of me editing the
/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf.

After adding..

alias snd-card-0 snd-ice1712
options snd-ice1712 index=0
alias snd-card-1 snd-ice1712
options snd-ice1712 index=1

..these cards would not load if something else was loaded into those
indexes.
I suppose I could add all devices that are to be used (3 audio cards +
some usb devices) into this file, but I'm giving up this for now.

Anyway, I was only doing this in order to be able to write the
~/.asoundrc that would turn these two cards into one interface.
As stated in another reply it didn't work for me, even if the ice1712
cards were loaded into hw:0 and hw:1.
