Hmm,

....
   ifeq ($(DEB_HOST_ARCH),amd64)
      bilibdir = emul/ia32-linux/usr/lib # amd64 unstable only!
    endif
....
      cp -a debian/bitmp/usr/lib/libasound.so.* \
      debian/lib$(bi)asound2/$(bilibdir)/
                                       ^^
                                       Can't find a blank here?

Maybe we should try
      debian/lib$(bi)asound2/$(bilibdir)
instead?
