There must be something configured on your system which cauuses your
issue. You don't have an .asoundrc. Did you created an /etc/asound.conf
or adapted some options loading your snd- modules? A clean install of
alsa-utils and libasound2 should work out of the box with no custom
settings!

Do you think to solve your issue with "specific commands"? Just
install Debian's plain alsa and enjoy,

Elimar
