Looking for alsa in the patches between -r5 and -r7, shows no new patches,
just the same ones - 

1028_2_usb-audio-hang.patch:Cc: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@...>, alsa-devel@...
1028_2_usb-audio-hang.patch:ALSA bug: http://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=1585
4900_speakup-20060103.patch:+you are using the alsamixer application.  Otherwise, you won't be able

And the base kernel is the same for all the 2.6.15-r*.  So possibilites that occur to me
are - 
      dmix profile is messed up?
      alsa-lib/utilities need to be re-emerged?
      kernel rebuilt by -
         mount /boot
         make clean
         make menucofnig
         make
         make modules_install
         make install

Though, I didn't see anything in the kernel config that looked out of place for alsa.

btw - are you using - media-sound/alsa-tools with the 2496?  I wonder it that is an
issue?

But nothing else (there is always PAM, if that's on your system) comes to mind.
