Maybe you didn't notice that udev doesn't load modules on device node acces=
s=20
(to solve problems caused by programs which touch many device files to dete=
ct=20
available hardware and so load many modules under devfs).

I assume you read the udev FAQ?

AFAIK, ALSA devices currently aren't handled by udev (maybe some of the dev=
s=20
can enlighten me), but ideally they would be created when the module gets=20
loaded and generates a hotplug event.

1) Have you loaded the mentioned modules?
2) Try to create the device files manually.
