Well, I was going to refer you to
 http://www-old.alsa-project.org/~iwai/writing-an-alsa-driver/index.html
but I just get a blank page today.

Set snd_pcm_hardware.period_bytes_min to 16 or is that 16 * samplesize?

You need to add some constraints to your driver, in the open callback.
E.g.
snd_pcm_hw_constraint_step(runtime, 0, SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_PERIOD_BYTES, 16);

List of hwparams that can be constrained is in asound.h
List of constraint helpers in pcm.h, or grep for snd_pcm_hw_constraint to see 
usage examples.
