To resolve this kind of problem I recommend finding each alsa package
installed on that machine then have aptitude install each of them but
put the -r switch on the end of that install command. That will install
recommended packages and once done this problem may disappear.

Since you appear to have Pulse Audio,
I didn't know I did :-)
why not use pavucontrol?
It asked me to have my sysadmin install pavucontrol. So I did When I ran it,
and it said:
"Connection to PulseAudio failed..."
So maybe I really don't have PA? Or have I not configured something properly?
Since I didn't think PA was on this machine, I haven't done any audio
configuration, alsa or Pulse.
