alsa-utils looks in /usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)/alsa-lib
wereas DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH is
$ dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_MULTIARCH

This is not a Debian version and not suported by Debian's Alsa
Maintainers so this bug is irrelevant and thus closed hereby.
alsa-utils uses the plugindir libasound2 is compiled with and it
seems that your system ist somewhat overloaded with 3'rd party
repo's. So install Debian and come back again if you find a bug in
Debian's alsa packages.
