Sorry - i cannot follow your opinion.
Everything is fine with the kernel.
There is a driver snd-cs46xx.ko already included but not the firmware.
The question why the firmware has to be patched is still open.

The main thing is that sound works perfect before in Lenny (stable).
Now there are several hardware combinations with big problems.
This is one of them.

I will ask the ALSA-Team for this specific problem.

At least the fact remains that older hardware isn't supported any more in
Squeeze ...
