Before, you just had to install the lib32asound and libasound packages; libasound would to go /lib and lib32asound would go to /emul/lib32, so 64b programs would use the 64b library, and the 32b would use the 32b. Now, how this works with ia32-apt-get?
I have this packages installed and working...
ii lib32asound2 1.0.20-3
shared library for ALSA applications (32 bit
ii lib32asound2-plugins 1.0.20-1
ALSA library additional plugins (32 bit)
ii libasound2 1.0.20-3
shared library for ALSA applications
ii libasound2-plugins 1.0.20-1
ALSA library additional plugins
chptma@refugio:~$ ldd /usr/bin/skype
linux-gate.so.1 => (0xf7f2e000)

>>> It's still not clear to me how we should install ia32 libs on amd64 systems. If I try to install a 32b library, sometimes it will try to overwrite an amd64, sometimes not. Pinning is the right choice? For instance, libasound, etc. The 32b libraries will be installed correctly on /emul/ia32? Is there any howto to solve this problems? For now, I'm still using ia32-libs and ia32-libs-gtk from testing to keep things like skype and firefox 3.5 working.
