it works!  disks burn correctly now.  thanks to everyone who helped me get this
straightened out, especially paul davis and joerg shilling.  in case it might help 
someone
else, i'm running a redhat based system and load the hammerfall modules at boot time 
with
this line added to /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit: 

action "Loading ALSA Hammerfall driver" modprobe snd-rme9652

/etc/modules.conf is set to load soundcore and snd-rme9652-mem before snd-rme9652, so 
this
takes care of it.  to automatically set the hammerfall's internal clock as master (or 
use
any non-default configuration) , the line

action "Setting Hammerfall as master clock" alsactl restore snd-rme9652

can be added after the modprobe command.
