Well, libasound is a Debian package from Squeeze and is 1.0.13. The drivers are from kernel 2.6.33.7.2-rt30, apart from aloop which is from release 1.0.24 of alsa-drivers. Aloop compiles and loads fine and seems to work when used standalone, but once the asoundrc is in place, I get the error described earlier.
