Hi, If you have read the ALSA instructions - you really don't need to compile all the drivers - just PCI, and your driver that is needed..
Could you supply please the output of /sbin/lspci please? Also, make it really matters HOW do you play the files - if with XMMS, then make sure you either using the ALSA driver in XMMS or if you use XMMS with OSS drivers - the the snd-pcm-oss drivers are loaded to memory.. BTW: you better upgrade - the 0.9.8 got some bugs fixes (although still not for ALi 5451 - the shit chip inside IBM R40e notebooks..)
