I encountered this bug too, and noticed the same "unable to find" ALSA
errors while trying to play Frets on Fire.

I did a dist-upgrade, but sound vanished after first reboot. Formatted
everything except /home and did a clean install, but again sound
vanished after first reboot. I wonder if there's updates that corrupt
the sound configuration.

To complicate things, I have two sound cards: NVidia and Revolution51.
Trying to switch to Revolution51 (ICE1724) in Gnome sound settings menu
just displayed some errors.

"asoundconf set-default-card Revolution51" fixed the bug for me. I may
also have removed ~/.asoundrc*.

Info:
Ubuntu Feisty Fawn 7.04 (clean install and dist-upgrade from working Edgy). 
Sound cards: NVidia integrated / ALC883 and M-Audio Revolution 5.1 (ICE1724).

Dist-upgrades from Dapper to Edgy break on existing ~/.asoundrc.asoundconf due 
to missing conf parameters (e.g., Unable to find definition 
'defaults.pcm.ipc_key')
