First off, thanks all for your assistance. I'm a bit closer to getting
this darn thing working. Upon being instructed by Paul Davis, I did the
following things:

#alsactl -f foo store 1 (because my Hammerfall is currently seen as the
second card)

I edited foo file, and changed the following:
        control.17 {
                comment.access 'read write'
                comment.type ENUMERATED
                comment.item.0 ADAT1
                comment.item.1 Internal
                iface PCM
                name 'ADAT1 Input Source'
                value ADAT1
        }

to

        control.17 {
                comment.access 'read write'
                comment.type ENUMERATED
                comment.item.0 ADAT1
                comment.item.1 Internal
                iface PCM
                name 'ADAT1 Input Source'
                value Internal
        }

saved the file, then did

#alsactl -f foo restore 1

#alsasound restart

And now I have asound.stat stating that syns is set to internal.

But, now when I try to use the card with aplay, I get the following
error:

#alsactl -Dhw:1 <sndfile>
Playing WAVE <sndfile> : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz,
Stereo
aplay: set_params:734: Access type not available

What does this mean? (I tried also -Dhw:1,0 or -Dhw:1,1 and -Dhw:1,2
without success)

I tried using aplay with my primary card PCI 128 with:

#aplay -Dhw:0 <sndfile>

and it played just fine.

So what am I doing wrong now?

Just for reference sake, these are only devices I have in my /dev/snd
dir:
controlC0  midiC0D0  pcmC0D0p  pcmC1D0c  seq
controlC1  pcmC0D0c  pcmC0D1p  pcmC1D0p  timer

Maybe this helps...

Also, could someone please be so kind to send me their asoundrc file
that they are using for the hammerfall, so that I can learn from it as
to how to configure it since the one that comes with alsa-driver package
is rather esotheric for my understanding? Thank you very much!
