Wazner:
Thanks for the heads-up Rich.

My results
I've got sound working through ALSA on the raspbian wheezy distro.
I had to remove the pulseaudio package to get it working though. (But no crashes even with the pulseaudio installed).
This means we can rule out hardware failure.

Thoughts:
I see that the alsa-plugins.tcz extensions depends on pulseaudio, maybe this is causing the same bug as on the raspbian distro.

bmarkus:
For testing edit /mnt/mmcbl0p2/tce/optional/alsa-plugins.tcz.dep and delete line with pulseaudio.tcz Additionally you can delete pulseaudio.tcz* files also. Reboot and try it.

Wazner:
I've tried your suggestion, it still didn't work.
This brought me on an idea: I'll install all dependencies one-by-one and see at what extension it crashes (if at any).

Results
Yes, I was able to narrow it down to the 'alsa-modules-3.14.4-piCore+.tcz' extension.

I assume ALSA can't run without this extension?

Greetings,
  Wazner

bmarkus:
Yes you need modules. The good question which module is causing the crash. Based on lsmod from old B modules can be blacklisted one by one.
