what kind of alsa-driver do you use?
alsa9 or alsa5 or the latest cvs-version??
if you use alsa9
at first you have to run the script 'snddevices' wich resides in your
alsa-driver-directory this makes the needed entrys in your /dev.
if you use some native oss-emulation you also have to define pcm.dsp0 in
your .asoundrc. for example my asoundrc:

pcm.ens1371 {
        type hw
        card 0
        device 0
}

pcm_slave.rs {
        pcm ens1371
        rate 44100
}

pcm.dsp0 {
        type rate
        slave rs
}

pcm.m {
        type meter
        slave {         
                pcm ens1371
                }
        frequency 50
        scopes {
                        type level
                }
}

pcm_scope.level {
        type level
}

pcm_scope_type.level {
        lib /usr/local/lib/liblevel.so
        open _snd_pcm_scope_level_open
}

pcm.ptest {
        type plug
        slave rs
}

ctl.mixer0 {
        type hw
        card 0
}


the pcm.dsp0 entry is here a rate-conversion depends on pcm_slave. this is
just for tests. you can define pcm.dsp0 as you want for example as a slave
of your main pcm, but it must be present
