I had a feeling that your sound card is so OLD, that DSL doesn't support it. That's because the driver has been included with alsa for several years, so it's not that it's too new. The version number scheme gave a hint too. That's why I asked about your card. I also couldn't find pictures of it, or it for sale, so I thought that it might be the chipset, and not the card. I probably couldn't find it for sale because they don't make it anymore.
According to the info files, dsl-dpkg.dsl is required for the alsa in system. I'd recommend the one in testing, which is newer, smaller, less requirements. The instructions there don't mention dsl-dpkg.dsl being required.
Good luck. I'm pretty sure this is the answer.
Also, if it is, you could conserve RAM by remaking the alsa extension to only have the driver files you need. Instructions for doing that are in the wiki.
