I've got alsa working with the via8233 southbridge. I'm running unstable so I have access to the alsa 1.0 sources, but I'm currently using alsa compiled with 0.9.0rc6 I believe. I found the following site at linuxorbit to be very helpful: http://www.linuxorbit.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Sections&file=index&req=viewarticle&artid=541&page=1 I've found alsa to be a joy, although I can't wait for 2.6 when it'll be included in the kernel. That'll alleviate all of these problems with getting it installed & configured (hopefully). Oh, I'm using the 2.4.18-bf2.4 kernel, and I haven't had as much luck with the 2.4.20-686 kernel. But, to be honest I haven't really tried all that hard with it. Goodluck.
