[linux-audio-user] alsaconf errors

[Joseph Zitt]

After an upgrade to the suggested alsaconf, the problem remains
unchanged.

By the way, alsaconf from alsa-driver-0.9.5/utils also identifies itself
as version 0.9.0, so as far as I know there was no way to reach your
assumption about which ALSA release I was using based on the information
in my message.

Now: any suggestions as to a fix?
