It was a great reply, just not to your question :-)

But a little-known fact is that alsa comes with a util to detect your card and 
install the right stuff in /etc/modules.conf

alsaconf

you can find it in the ./utils dir of the driver source tree.

Note also snddevices in the main dir of the driver source tree, makes all the 
right /dev guys.

Apolgies for not reading better the first time!
