If you do install all those updated alsa packages (and I guess any
dependancies they demand as well), then you can compile and install the
updated alsa-source drivers with this command:

apt-get install module-assistant
m-a -t prepare
m-a a-i -t alsa

That should hopefully work OK, and after a reboot you should hopefully
see alsa version 1.0.15 in /proc/asound/version

Hopefully at that point the mixer settings become more sane since it
won't be the very first early release of support for the emu, but rather
the updated and somewhat more complete driver.
