The statements in your report about unknown PCM parameters are values
held in asound.state by alsamixer. Problem is when they rev Alsa the
numbers for all these things change and the new mixer doesn't match up
to the asound.state values. The simplest solution is to erase
/etc/asound.state and then rerun alsamixer by hand in a terminal.
alsamixer will save a new copy that is correct for your new version of
Alsa.

Hope this helps,
Mark
