(or dxs_support=2 if it doesn't solve the problem.) see alsa-kernel/Documentation/ALSA-Configuration.txt for details. btw, before building the alsa-driver externally, it's better to remove CONFIG_SND* in your kernel configuration (/usr/src/linux/include/linux/autoconf.h). otherwise there might be inconsistencies.
