So "default" was indeed redefined. (I somehow misread that part in your first mail and was under the false impression, that "default" was working, sorry.) > After going through this experience, I think one resource that is > missing is a trouble shooting guide (or maybe I just didn't find it).

One thing, that could go into a future general Troubleshooting guide is, to remove all local configuration: /etc/asound.conf, ~/.asoundrc and /etc/asound.state (more?) and start with a clean system. Personally I see the Wiki as and important part of the ALSA documentation. It should be linked more prominently on alsa-project.org or even hosted there to make it more visible. It has the most user contributed information on alsa besides the mailing list archives.
