with the new rtc (at least it's not recommended to use both (see below)

hm..
when I was selecting the new rtc-driver in menuconf, I got a warning,
it would be incompatible with the old rtc.
Also it doesn't sound convincing to me, to run two different
rtc-drivers at the same time.
I don't have snd_rtctimer, only snd_timer.

in
  linux/sound/core/rtctimer.c
I find:
#if defined(CONFIG_RTC) || defined(CONFIG_RTC_MODULE)

so you might be right, that the snd_rtctimer
still requires the old rtc.

# lsmod | grep -i rtc
rtc_cmos 11680 0
rtc_core 21584 1 rtc_cmos
rtc_lib 4096 1 rtc_core
