If the live-cd works then I presume you've done something post install
that has caused the breakage. I'm no alsa expert (I'm on the mobile
team) but maybe a 

	sudo apt-get remove alsa-base && sudo apt-get install alsa-base

may revert it to the default configuration but please look into it first
because if you break it then you get to keep both pieces ;)

A more sensible approach would be to file a bug against alsa with the
files you have produced from the live session and your installed
configuration. More knowledgeable people will be able to comment on the
bug directly.

Regards,
Jamie.
