My apologies for not writing in earlier.

Thanks, John for the advice. Here's what my team mate did to get ALSA working
for our sound card:
1. Build the 2.6.15 kernel on Gentoo without ALSA support.
2. Install ALSA from source.
3. Emerge aplay and test that sound works
4. Write a custoer /etc/asoundrc file for 5.1 sound.

I haven't access to the /etc/asoundrc file at the moment, I'll upload it to the
list once I have access to this file.

Thanks, John, for the help.
