I went the lazy [not recommended] way : I downloaded the individual
files from unstable, as http://packages.debian.org (apt-pinning would be
the sane way)
  linux-doc-2.6.23
  linux-headers-2.6.23-1-686
  linux-headers-2.6.23-1-common
  linux-image-2.6.23-1-686
  linux-kbuild-2.6.23

But since you run Testing, compiling alsa-modules 1.0.15 should be
enough. Did you tried, did you have any problem ?

# Compile alsa-modules
# (i.e kernel 2.6.22 + alsa-module 1.0.15)
apt-get remove 'alsa-modules-*'
apt-get install module-assistant alsa-source
module-assistant prepare 
module-assistant update
module-assistant a-i alsa-source
