With our ASI cards we have always had to make sure to recompile the ASI kernel module for either hpklinux or the alsa snd_asihpi driver. Kernel modules are built using the current working kernel's source tree, so it's by default installed to the current kernel version kernel directory (i.e. /lib/modules/`uname -r`)
Another idea you can do to prevent this is to not upgrade the kernel, but update everything else that needs updating... if it ain't broke on your hardware, don't fix it.
