[PD] pd & alsa 0.9.0b9

[marco trevisani]

Well...to me it sounds that once again a new ALSA release has some 
incompatibility with the previous one....
I dont have 0.9.0b9 installed so it is just a guess based on previous 
experiences...:-(

Did you try an __older__ version such as 0.9.0beta7 or beta8 ?
