Hmm...I've never used the packaged ALSA stuff. I always got the
latest driver, lib and utilities tarballs from
www.alsa-project.org and compiled them myself. You might want to
read the HowTo documentation. According to a quick scan on the
ALSA web site, you should be using the driver es18xx for the
ES1887 chipset. Also, to make sure all the sound device files
are setup, run the snddeices script, which is included with the
drivers source.
Check out the mini howto:

Good Luck,
