Are use using alsa provided by the kernel, or the kernel modules provided 
by alsa-driver?  What version of either the kernel or alsa-driver?  What 
version of alsa-lib?

Can you play wav files through aplay?  There should be some samples 
in /usr/share/sounds if you don't have other .wav files.

In addition to being unmuted are the outputs actually turned up?

You appear to have the right modules loaded, but those dmesg errors are 
likely because the userland is having problems talking to the kernel.

What's -nitro?  Is that your own kernel version string or is that like 
ck-sources?
