If you're not using devfs, you need to run the "sunddevices" script in
the alsa-driver source tarball as root, because ALSA's device nodes live
in /proc/asound/dev, so it needs to make softlinks from /dev to there.

If you're using devfs then you'll need to edit devfsd.conf - afraid I
can't help you there, but it ought to be in the docs (I hope - I really
should switch to using it soon)...
