Since we're in agreement this isn't a regression, I've updated my working source tree to 2.6.25-rc5. Built the new kernel with the patch to omit es1888_init(), and as near as I can tell, that function does nothing useful on the Miata platform. At the very least, not having it makes no difference to any of the ALSA drivers I've tried: snd-sb8 still works great, and snd-es18xx is still broken in the same way originally described at the beginning of this long thread. I'll try a build with the old OSS "sb" driver, and if that works ok, we may be able to do away with es1888_init() on the Miata.
