[yocto] Plain package isn't built for alsa-lib in Poky

[Burton, Ross]

Note that the alsa-lib package doesn't actually put the library alsa-lib
but the libasound package, the alsa-lib package could not exist (or for
most recent releases, it exists but only contains card data files).  So if
you're depending on alsa-lib to get the library then that's not the right
name.
