Hi alsa users,
As I had mentioned in my previous post. I believe that the problem is
almost definitely with the missing devices in /dev/snd which I found in
/dev/.static/dev/snd
Here is some information I took from running kubuntu dapper and my
debian etch :

Kubuntu has 2 extra devices 22: [0- 6]: digital audio playback and 30:
[0- 6]: digital audio capture, which I assume to be pcmC0D6c abd
pcmC0D6p. There is also a difference when I ran cat /proc/asound/pcm.
The versions of Alsa drivers, it seems are identical.
Is there a way of trying to include the missing devices in /dev/snd?? I
guess that this has got to do with creating the sound devices. Can this
be done simply with debian using ./snddevices. Would that solve the
problem? Perhaps creating alsa from scratch would work.
A similar problem seems to have happen with Thomas Krause.
Any suggestions??
