Hey Michael, I'm not qualified to help solve this problem and can only
help you ask the right questions (which is why I didn't respond to
your response to my questions...). 

here's a link of interest:

there is some interesting discussion of potential problems that might
steer you in the right direction.

these (and subsequent errors) say that the hardware has not been
detected properly.

stop installing non-debian stuff or you'll likely not get
help. Totally remove all the non-debian stuff. reinstall the kernel
and see what happens. 

BTW, what kernel are you running? 

what alsa pakages are installed?

dpkg -l \*alsa\*

Finally, you claim that it suddenly stopped working for no
reason. Well, there must be some reason. Did you upgrade anything?
Install or remove any packages? 

I'll leave the stuff below for reference.
