Edit: Answering my own question. Using the build linked by Bullsei, without the hifiberry.conf, lsmod returns:

Code:

Code:

aplay: device_list:268: no soundcards found...

and with hifiberry.conf (as originally specified, with both snd_soc_bcm2708 and bcm2708_dmaengine, which do not cause noticeable errors at startup*):

Code:

Code:

  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

*Note: the correct command to load the modules is "systemctl start systemd-modules-load.service", and to see the status/errors "systemctl status systemd-modules-load.service" which reveals:

Code:

Feb 27 20:37:40 rpi512 systemd-modules-load[660]: Failed to find module 'snd_soc_bcm2708'

so even with this build the attempt to load the modules is ending with an error, just not as obviously as with build #0227.

I'll try creating a clean build and see if that helps (will take just under 2 hours).
