I find it very very hard to believe that alsa support is not built into your kernel. I doubt very much that any distro would disable alsa Look for any snd- entries in /lib/modules find /lib/modules -name snd-\* The look to see if you have snd-dummy find /lib/modules -name snd-dummy\* The kernel setup does NOT control the details of alsa. If alsa is enabled then all of the modules are compiled and installed. The only way snd-dummy would not be there is if they went into alsa itself and disabled it.
