I had the same problem with the hdsp card with a MultiFace II
interface. The problem is that the way the matrix mixer is addressed
within the kernel driver has been changed and they got it slightly
wrong.

The problem appeared with the ALSA 1.0.15 which comes as part of kernel
2.6.24. It is fixed in ALSA 1.0.16 but there is also a patch for 1.0.15
here: http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2008-
January/005309…

The issue affects a vanilla 2.6.24 kernel and has nothing to do with
applying realtime patches.

Steve.
