The actual drivers are in the kernel RPMs.

Rats. Checking my FC2 dvd (since I have it installed from source,
to find where the modules come from, I have to check the rpm packages
themselves to find the files) I see that it is the *kernel* RPM which
has the
/lib/modules/[version]/kernel/sound/[varies]
modules.
So, if you do what I suggested, above, you would have an updated
lib and other parts, *but only* 1.0.6 for the actual driver
(and it is primarily the driver you want to update).
So, one would also have to use the development branch's kernel
update (assuming the kernel modules in that match the alsa lib
RPMs I suggested above) along with the lib packages in order to
get alsa updated (via RPM) to version 1.0.8.
