Sorry, I guess I should have started with this. I'm running testing
with a SB Live 5.1. Here's the relevant packages I have installed:
alsa-base 0.9.0rc6-3
alsa-modules-2.4.20 0.9.0rc6+3+p3+ljhcustom.2
alsa-source 0.9.0rc6-3
alsa-utils 0.9.0rc3-0.2
alsaconf 0.4.3b-4
Looks like you are running a older driver (0.9.0beta10) than me, so
'snd-card-emu10k1' is correct. The name change starts in 0.9.0beta11.

And just for reference, my /etc/alsa/modutils/0.9 :
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
This is straight from the alsa-project.org webpage referenced earlier
in this thread. I'm not sure of the answer to the adc frame size
question, but try commenting out that line and see if you have any
luck.
