Most probably you now have installed two versions of whatever you
installed in your system (you don't say, alsa-lib?). By default
configure without parameters will install to /usr/local. The standard
rpm package in fc is installed in /usr (to see what is installed type
"rpm -q -l alsa-lib" if what you installed is actually alsa-lib). You
should erase whatever you installed before going any further. 

I would not install from source. Rather you should try making rpm
packages of the new version (not easy), so that whatever you do will
match what fc is already doing.
