You can get latest tarball of alsa-firmware from here:
ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/firmware/alsa-firmware-1.0.24.1.tar.bz2

./cofigure make will build *.bin files in hdsploader dir.
Files digiface_firmware.bin, digiface_firmware_rev11.bin, multiface_firmware.bin, multiface_firmware_rev11.bin and rpm_firmware.bin
should be placed to /lib/firmware/hdsploader/ directory.
At least I have them installed there and it works fine for me and I think hdsploader search for firmware there.
Maybe somebody from pkg-alsa-devel can comment on this?

If you need get contact with upstream this should be right address: alsa-devel@alsa-project.org

best regards
