I had this exact same problem just last night... I found that if I didn't compile in the MIDI support, it worked just fine... I have no idea why this works, but it fixed my problem...
I noticed that when I loaded the module, unloaded it, then loaded it again (with any amount of time in the intrum) my machine locked. When I ran an strace on a process that relied on kerneld to load and unload the driver, the machine froze when /dev/dsp or /dev/audio was opened. If I ran the insmod myself, strace revealed that the machine froze on the sys_init_module call. That's about as far as I got. I hope that helps.
