Make sure that both your kernel and your alsa-lib use the correct compiler and compiler flags (where "correct" usually means "whatever the vendor's distribution uses").
You've gone way over my head ... How do I find out what flags were used to compile the kernel?
This time, checking out https://vcs.maemo.org/svn/dsp-alsa
It would be nice to know what the changes from the original alsa-lib are; in theory, they should go upstream.
I agree ... but it looks like that is an abandoned project; at https://garage.maemo.org/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php/?root=dsp-alsa it says the last modification was 3 years ago. The text file "version" says 1.0.10
I found that "apt-get source libasound2" gives me a newer version: [1|user at Nokia-N810-43-7|~/src/alsa-lib-1.0.14sa/test]cat ../../alsa-lib_1.0.14sa-2maemo2.dsc Format: 1.0 Source: alsa-lib Version: 1.0.14sa-2maemo2 Binary: lib32asound2-dev, lib64asound2, lib32asound2, libasound2-dev, libasound2, libasound2-doc, libasound2-dbg, lib64asound2-dev Maintainer: Debian ALSA Maintainers <pkg-alsa-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org> Architecture: any Standards-Version: 3.7.2 Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 4.2.32), quilt (>= 0.40), autotools-dev, doxygen, libc6-dev-powerpc [ppc64], libc6-dev-i386 [amd64], libc6-dev-ppc64 [powerpc], libc6-dev-s390x [s390], libc6-dev-sparc64 [sparc], lib32gcc1 [amd64 ppc64], libc6-dev (>= 2.5) [armel] Vcs-Browser: http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-alsa/trunk/alsa-lib/ Uploaders: Jordi Mallach <jordi at debian.org>, Mikael Magnusson <mikma at users.sourceforge.net>, Elimar Riesebieter <riesebie at lxtec.de>, Marc-Andre Lureau <marc-andre.lureau at nokia.com> Vcs-Svn: svn://svn.debian.org/pkg-alsa/trunk/alsa-lib Files: 5542a18a1479e4de4b9890e30e94588e 1099165 alsa-lib_1.0.14sa.orig.tar.gz fc02aa3dbf2f66fb090e02ada703cc1d 47455 alsa-lib_1.0.14sa-2maemo2.diff.gz
This version seems to install correctly, but still gives me no sound. The full log of my latest effort is here -> http://www.swajime.com/n810/alsa-lib_1.0.14sa-2maemo2.log

Why?
I honestly don't know. :-( It looks like a bug in m4? Here is the log for cvscompile: [1|root@Nokia-N810-43-7|/home/user/src/dsp-alsa/trunk/alsa-lib]cat cvscompile #!/bin/bash

Still no sound :-(
Mixer controls not set? (amixer and alsamixer are in alsa-utils)
I haven't been able to find alsa-utils in any maemo/diablo repositories.
I found that alsa-tools is in the fremantle repo: http://repository.maemo.org/pool/fremantle/free/a/alsa-utils/
It bricks the n810 :-(
Fremantle is not compatible with the n810 as I remember.
