O.K. no problem to add alsa.device_file and oss.device_file. I'll rework the 
patch.

As far as I know these devices are not tied to a specific sound card, but I'll 
discuss this with Takashi Iwai. I think we should add this (essential) 
devices also if they not tied to a special sound card.

Could you send the output of these commands ?:
cat /sys/class/sound/sequencer*/dev
cat /proc/asound/devices


Cheers,

Danny
