I mooted this problem by ditching ALSA: I read the Debian sound HOWTO
(http://www.tux.org/~tbr/sound-debian/), used isapnptools to configure
the card, and loaded the appropriate modules.
If anyone else has an IBM PC 300PL with a CS4235 (CS4235B, according
to a spec sheet I found), I've attached my isapnp.conf file. I used
modconf to configure the cs4232 module (kernel 2.4.19-686) with the
parameters "io=0x532 irq=5 dma=1 dma2=0", and added the users on the
system to the audio group so they could write to the audio
devices. All seems well. (Translation: I can play mp3s. I have yet to
make /dev/sequencer work -- maybe it's a hardware problem; maybe it's
a configuration error. Either way, MIDI isn't a priority for me.)
