This is related to your modules.conf file. Here is what I have in mine:
alias sound snd-card-0
alias snd-card-0 snd-card-emu10k1
alias snd-synth-midi snd-seq-midi
# Options
options snd-card-emu10k1 snd_index=0 snd_id="EMU" snd_enable=1
options snd-pcm-oss snd_nonblock_open=1
# OSS/Free emulation
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
Essentially everything will be the same except the snd-card-emu10k1
stuff if you have a different card. I never have to manually load
modules.
As far as MusE. I haven't tried it with most recent ALSA, although more
than likely it will work fine. You need to make sure you have a new
enough version of QT (3.0 it looks like) and that you edit make.inc and
change the QTDIR variable (on my system its /usr) and change other
variables as appropriate. Hope that helps.
