That's in the bottom of the INSTALL file, at least in 0.9.0rc1:
DEVFS support
=============
The ALSA driver fully supports the devfs extension.
You should add lines below to your devfsd.conf file:
LOOKUP snd MODLOAD ACTION snd
REGISTER ^sound/.* PERMISSIONS root.audio 660
REGISTER ^snd/.* PERMISSIONS root.audio 660
Warning: These lines assume that you have the audio group in your system.
Otherwise replace audio word with another group name (root for
example).
