Then it's a totally different problem, because you're creating a _new_ system. The known systems have already own specific configurations for alsa-lib, typically installed on /usr/share/alsa/cards directory. When a new system is created, one has to set up the default config file there. Otherwise, alsa-lib would choose a fallback configuration, and it's not guaranteed to match with what you wanted.
