At first you can try to upgrade alsa-lib manually.
But I guess you'd need to build the kernel by yourself, too, as this
seems to be a kernel driver problem.

Please give the output of aplay with -v option for both working
cases. Especially interesting with -M because it should access via
mmap mode.

The HDSPM board supports only non-interleaved PCM streams, thus the
mmap is performed per channel unlike the other standard interleaved
format.
Now looking at the issue closely, I guess it's an issue that is
specific to the non-interleaved PCM format. It performs multiple
mmaps, once per channel. And for non-x86, we provide only the mmap
for the full buffer.
Below is an untested patch to address it. Give it a try.
It should be applicable to 4.1.x kernel, too.
thanks,
Takashi
