I don't know how you reached that conflict. I'm running wheezy and "dist-
upgrade" did a good job by deleting "linux-sound-base".

Also, the "linux-sound-base" dependency should not exist:

http://packages.debian.org/wheezy/alsa-base

Please run "apt-get update && apt-get -V dist-upgrade" and put here the 
output (and don't do the upgrade yet).
