Hi Frank,

I have tried several times but could not find ALSA modules

 I don't know Redhat that good, but these all seem to look just like
 source code packages, that don't matter for your running system. It's
 more interesting which ALSA modules you have installed. They all begin
 with "snd-" and live somwhere under /lib/modules/`uname -r`/
