or just use [r pd]--[print] while playing with the settings dialogs and copy the messages to resend later...
but i don't know if it will work at all, pd only seems to scan for soundcards when it starts (which i think is a bug); so you'd have to start pd with it plugged in, then probably have to switch pd to/from the non-usb soundcard before/after replugging the usb
i'm not sure if any app behaves nicely when you abruptly unplug hardware that it is using - there might be a way to handle it in the ALSA plugin layer, but the ALSA wiki doesn't look promising...

When running pd with -nogui as a daemon, can I send messages to connect to and disconnect from a soundcard? I want to be able to hot plug my usb soundcard without having to stop and start pd each time, if possible.
