ALSA wants to do the pnp init stuff. At least on my ALS-007 soundcard. 
Just enabling pnp in the kernel is enough, then it is no longer busy I 
guess. You don't need the isapnptools for ALSA soundcards.

Is ALSA compiled with option --with-isapnp ?

Please use modprobe (not insmod) for loading ALSA modules. This can 
avoid a lot of trouble, too.
