Aha!
/etc/modprobe.d had a copy of alsa-base.dpkg-dist in it; I unpacked
the current alsa-base debian as well. A quick copy of alsa-base.dpkg-
dist to alsa-base makes everything work now. (/etc/init.d/alsa reload
actually reloads the sound modules.)
Thank you very much. I think the original problem remains, however:
following the default choices during upgrades leads to a non-
functioning system. Is there anything else you would like me to check?
