ALSA lib control.c:601:(snd_ctl_open_noupdate) Invalid CTL default

[suresh kumar sharma <suresh_kr_sharma@yahoo.com>]

hi,
I re-installed ALSA on my debian 2.4.19 system and it
installed fine.but when I use amixer I get this error.
######
ALSA lib control.c:601:(snd_ctl_open_noupdate) Invalid
CTL default
amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such file or
directory
#######

is it looking for some default file or is it some
setup problem.
any suggestions on how to fix it.
thanks
suresh
