Either make udev rules to create the devices in the correct order, or
specify the cards order (index) in your alsa config, such as on my
system:

$ cat /proc/asound/card0/id
Intel
$ cat /proc/asound/card1/id
NVidia

First is my on-board sound, second is my HDMI. So, one card is called
"Intel" and other is "NVidia". In modprobe's options I would set it
something like this (all on one line)

options snd-intel-hda model=intel-x58,auto enable_msi=1,0 index=0,1
id=Intel,NVidia
