The problem is with libasound2. To quote Linas Žvirblis:
"If you do not use aptitude (I highly recommend it), you can do it manually:
1. Download libasound2_1.0.11-4_ARCH_NAME-HERE.deb from [1];
2. Remove the package by running...
"dpkg -r --force-all libasound2"
...as root;
3. Install previously downloaded deb by running...
"dpkg -i DEB_NAME_NAME"
...as root.
[1] http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/a/alsa-lib/"
That should take care of it.
