Package: alsa-utils
Version: 1.0.11-4
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Sound support completely broken; from /var/log/boot:

Consequently, all sound software fails.
This is on an "Compaq Professional Workstation SP700" that had no
sound related problem since a few days ago. The machine gets updated
more or less every day; I'm sorry I can't say exactly when things
broke (or what update introduced the problem -- I'm filing this
report against alsa-utils because I do not know better). FWIW, sound
still works in a Red Hat installation on the same machine.
Custom kernel is build from:
ii linux-source-2.6.16 2.6.16-14 Linux kernel source for version
2.6.16 with Debian patches
...but this standard kernel:
ii linux-image-2.6.16-1-686-smp 2.6.16-12 Linux kernel 2.6.16 image on
PPro/Celeron/PII/PIII/P4 SMP machines
...has the same problem.
There are 2 soundcards installed; one onboard ISA-PnP ESS ES1869
(es-18xx) and a PCI ESS Solo1 (es-1938).

Please let me know what other information would be useful.
