Audigy stops working in Ubuntu

For some reason my Audigy sound card wasn't working. Well, it was working but no sound was coming out. I could see that Ubuntu found the hardware but it was muted. Anyway, I think this is what fixed it.

If these files exist, do this...
# cd ~
# mv .asoundrc .asoundrc.bak
# mv .asoundrc.asoundconf .asoundrc.asoundconf.bak

Then list your installed sound cards
# asoundconf list

Then finally..
# asoundconf set-default-card

If none of that works, then check out this thread for more info:
