Due to troubles in my version of ALSA (1.0.6) I needed to add this 
line (all one line) to my /etc/modprobe.conf:

install snd-ens1371 /sbin/modprobe --first-time --ignore-install snd-ens1371 && { /sbin/modprobe snd-pcm-oss; /bin/true; } && { /sbin/modprobe snd-seq-midi; /bin/true; }

You'll notice that my card is an ens1371.  Your's is probably 
different, i.e. emu10k1 or something like that.

G'luck....
