Nothing. The info I put in that mail was sufficient to get sound for me.

asound. They are alsa config files.

I've tested with ogg123 (from vorbis-tools) and with vlc.

Are you sure you had the sound driver modules loaded? Read the mail I 
linked to carefully. Check /proc/asound. Run 'alsamixer' and check that it 
shows the expected controls...

BTW, I'm not sure whether or not the config files will work with "our" 
kernel.
