Hello.

It is actually a problem in a non-recent alsa-lib. With alsa-lib from hg it works fine, but breaks with 1.0.16. The commit that introduced an incompatibility is this one: http://hg-mirror.alsa-project.org/alsa-kernel/diff/26b0243ab4fa/drivers/pcsp/pcsp_lib.c I certainly was not considering the maintenance problems it creates. :( Perhaps should we revert this commit for now, and reintroduce after the next alsa-lib release?
FYI, the alsa-lib fix is this one: http://hg-mirror.alsa-project.org/alsa-lib/diff/8a980469cd71/src/conf/cards/PC-Speaker.conf
The problem happened because the softvol plugin doesn't support 8bit formats. So the above config change was needed.
