I suspect there is some hackary you could do if you install the kernel
source and recompile to include properly include CONFIG_SND, but
nobody ever went through the effort (as far as I know).  I believe
Markus did in his codebase, which is why he has been distributing
binaries for Ubuntu instead of having people build from source (but I
could be wrong there).

The core of the issue is Ubuntu provided an updated ALSA separate from
the rest of the kernel distro, but then screwed up the kernel headers
so that we think ALSA isn't present, so v4l-dvb doesn't compile any of
the alsa modules.
