I think it is because /usr is not mounted at this point in the boot process.

Description:
alsa-base - ALSA driver configuration files

alsa-source - ALSA driver sources
Closes: 291942 292127
Changes:
alsa-driver (1.0.8-3) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Thomas Hood:
- /etc/init.d/alsa:
+ Check for availability of alsactl and amixer using "command -v"
before attempting to run them (Closes: #291942)
+ Use #!/bin/bash because "command -v" is non-POSIX (see #218530)
- /usr/share/doc/alsa-base/README.Debian:
+ Inform user that warning messages about alsactl or amixer not
being found can be ignored if they occur as a result of the
initscript being run in the boot process prior to /usr being
mounted
- /etc/mod(utils|probe.d)/alsa-base:
+ Add modprobe-post-install calls for snd-emu8000-synth so that
the awesfx maintainer can arrange for asfxload to be run from
/etc/alsa/modprobe-post-install.d/ when this module loads.
(This would be to grant wish #246405.) It seems that in
earlier ALSA releases, asfxload had to be run after snd-sbawe
was loaded, but now it has to be run after snd-emu8000-synth
is loaded. Thanks to Bodo Meissner for providing this
information.
- /etc/alsa/modprobe-post-install.d/alsa-base:
+ Don't run initscript start for snd-emu8000-synth
- alsa-base.postinst:
+ Tolerate absence of /etc/mod(utils|probe.d)/alsa-base .
Thanks to Ludovic Watteaux for pointing out this bug.
- /usr/share/lintian/overrides/alsa-(base|source):
+ Override description-synopsis-starts-with-a-capital-letter
- debian/changelog
+ Move entries to changelog-old
* Jordi Mallach:
- debian/OSS-module-list: add usb-midi to blacklist
(thanks, Mario Lang; Closes: #292127)
