To let my AUDIO soundcard work (i have an Intel ICH 889) I have to install updated Alsa drivers and properly configure them. After that, I can use PulseAudio (or better, I HAVE TO - use pulseaudio) as audio server + ALSA. + use pulseaudio*) as audio server + ALSA. This integration has been successful also because of a small utility, called "asoundconf" ( "asoundconf-gtk" for the GUI) that helps me selecting PULSEAUDIO as source for APLAY, G-streamer codecs, YouTube, etc etc... This "asoundconf" is not available any more in Alsa-Utils, because they say it's gonna be deprecated. Problem is...
