ok, i recompiled the kernel with the help of the alsa-page and your
link. and nothing changed:
after the first reboot everything works fine.
after the second time, only aplay works.

i get many of these errors:
hda_codec: invalid dep_range_val 0:7fff
hda_codec: num_steps = 0 for NID=0xd

i hope you have still any ideas because i almost give up...
i used windows today, and all works just without any configuring... :(

but i want to get this working!
