Thanks Phil!
I just tested both alsa kernel mods in epel-testing and found the newer one
(1.0.24-1) didn't fix the problem for me (my hardware uses the even older
N10/ICH7 chipset), kmod-alsa-1.0.23-1.el6.elrepo did. Given the advantages
of kAPI-tracking kmods, I'll be sticking with that for now.
Great.
Yes, newer is not always better for some packages, especially when they
provide multiple kernel modules (e.g, kmod-alsa and kmod-video4linux),
hence why we like to keep a few versions available.
