I was having problems detecting all the sound devices of my card (as shown in alsamixer) when I had alsa built in the kernel. This was particularly problematic for capture devices - external microphones were not showing up. From what I recall the devs advised that alsaconf and alsactl require alsa drivers to be built as modules so that they can probe the soundcard with different options as they load these modules. That advice made me build alsa driver as modules from then on and my problems were resolved for good. -- Regards, Mick
