A couple of month agoo I've tried to upgrade the ALSA CVS, and I 
remember that I got
almost exactly the same sympton that you are describing.

Sometimes when running JACK without X, the SysRQ key works, however
I did not get any useful information from it, I did not get any 
interactive response
from the developer list, and I've been very lasy ....

Since that I'm using a very old ALSA CVS version from May 17, that seems
to work fine with SMP.
