I much prefer fixing those, but one can't know how to do _everything_ with out a little help, here and there. The point of using a USB stick with a live distro is to see whether you continue to have the same problem with newer software, especially the kernel, without you needing to install a bunch of new stuff. I guess an alternative would be for you to find a newer kernel for your current distro, install it, and see if it cures the problem. 12.04 is quite an old distro and not too many people are going to be interested in debugging it if a newer kernel / distro fixes the problem. If that doesn't resolve the Alsa problem and you want to get more specific help, you should provide more specific information.
