I've got a machine with two fxp devices in, it has always picked up the card first then the onboard one, which I also thought was odd. Although I've never noticed the order in which they were probed change. It ran 4.0-release then up'd to stable a couple of months ago, then to 4.1-stable shortly after 4.1-release.
