I purged the alsa modules package, edited the /etc/modules files, and  
restarted the system. It
appears the system is still using the powermac driver though, and  
alsa still seems to be
having problems. Here's the output from lsmod:

snd_powermac           48704  3
snd_aoa_i2sbus         24388  0
snd_pcm_oss            52480  0
snd_mixer_oss          20384  1 snd_pcm_oss
snd_pcm                92324  4 snd_powermac,snd_aoa_i2sbus,snd_pcm_oss
snd_timer              26084  2 snd_pcm
snd_page_alloc         11272  1 snd_pcm
snd                    67476  10  
snd_powermac,snd_aoa_i2sbus,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer
soundcore               8900  1 snd
snd_aoa_soundbus        7908  1 snd_aoa_i2sbus
