Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Here is the output of the
script when run from Ubuntu as actually installed (via upgrade) on my
computer:

http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=83803a274f4dadeadd003ba7cafa92b5237a5d7b

(And here's the prior test from the live CD again, for ease of comparison:
http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=d0cacb417f034d41823fcdd3e0d6c1868722c4c2 )


I notice that the live CD has a newer kernel than my installed system, I
wonder if that makes a difference? (I'd have thought that the upgrade
would have updated my kernel, however?)

I'm afraid that as I know virtually nothing about ALSA, I can't work out
anything useful from the rest (other than my system clearly isn't 
detecting the soundcard properly), but if you can deduce anything, that
would be very helpful.

Thanks again,


David.
