What distribution? Any reason you particularly want this handled at the
ALSA layer? This seems like the kind of situation that Pulse was intended
to handle.
In fact I have a similar setup where Pulse defaults to my m-audio PCI card
if the USB interface is not connected, if the USB interface is connected
it becomes the default audio interface, and if I start jack then pulse
connects to jack instead of directly to the ALSA interface. I start jack
with qjackctl so I decide on startup which interface I want jack to use.
