Ah, but I bet if you do a 'lspci', you get something different from:
> /sbin/lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 440BX/ZX - 82443BX/ZX Host bridge (rev 03)
00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 440BX/ZX - 82443BX/ZX AGP bridge (rev 03)
00:07.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82371AB PIIX4 ISA (rev 02)
00:07.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82371AB PIIX4 IDE (rev 01)
00:07.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82371AB PIIX4 USB (rev 01)
00:07.3 Bridge: Intel Corporation 82371AB PIIX4 ACPI (rev 02)
00:0d.0 Multimedia audio controller: Ensoniq ES1371 [AudioPCI-97] (rev 07)
00:13.0 Unknown mass storage controller: Triones Technologies, Inc. HPT366 (rev 01)
00:13.1 Unknown mass storage controller: Triones Technologies, Inc. HPT366 (rev 01)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Trident Microsystems 3DIm`age 975 (rev f3)
I bet the number after (rev) isn't 07; that's what's causing the
problem. There are messages in the ALSA mailing list archives about
this problem; I can dig up the references if needed.
