I build my audio drivers into my kernel. I also have these alsa related
packages installed:
root@fireball / # equery list *alsa*
* Searching for *alsa* ...
[IP-] [ ] media-libs/alsa-lib-1.0.24.1:0
[IP-] [ ] media-plugins/gst-plugins-alsa-0.10.35:0.10
[IP-] [ ] media-sound/alsa-headers-1.0.24:0
[IP-] [ ] media-sound/alsa-utils-1.0.24.2-r1:0.9
[IP-] [ ] media-sound/alsamixergui-0.9.0.1.2-r4:0
root@fireball / #
