Sorry for the problem. 

For now I have moved the new kernel and alsa to the planetedge
repository where it cannot do more damage :-(

I can confirm that envy24control segfaults... 

Most probably the best option for you would be to revert to the previous
version of alsa. First erase with rpm "planetccrma-core-edge" (which has
all the dependencies):

  rpm -e planetccrma-core-edge

Then we need to get the various alsa components to the previous version.

Start with:
  apt-get update
Then do the following (these will downgrade the packages, you will need
to confirm with "Y"):
  apt-get install alsa-utils=1.0.9rfa-1.rhfc4.ccrma
  apt-get install alsa-tools=1.0.9-1.rhfc4.ccrma
[if you installed the plugins]
  apt-get install alsa-plugins=1.0.9-1.rhfc4.ccrma
  apt-get install alsa-oss=1.0.9-1.rhfc4.ccrma
[the following is on one line]
  apt-get install alsa-lib=1.0.9rf-1.rhfc4.ccrma
alsa-lib-devel=1.0.9rf-1.rhfc4.ccrma
... and finally...
  apt-get install alsa-driver=1.0.9b-1.rhfc4.ccrma

You should be fine after this (I hope)...
