Thanks for your effort, but something is not right.
Configure detects that no ALSA is present, but still goes ahead and 
tries to compile an ALSA program:

checking for ALSA... no
configure: error: pkg-config found alsa, but it does not compile.  See 
config.log for error messages.

A sh -x on configure gives:

+ ALSA_REQUIRED=1.0.0
+ ALSA_MODULES='alsa >= 1.0.0'
+ pkg_failed=no
+ printf '%s\n' 'configure:9554: checking for ALSA'
+ printf %s 'checking for ALSA... '
+ test -n ''
+ test -n ''
+ pkg_failed=untried
+ test -n ''
+ test -n ''
+ pkg_failed=untried
+ test untried = yes
+ test untried = untried
+ printf '%s\n' 'configure:9613: result: no'
+ printf '%s\n' no
+ :
+ HAVE_ALSA=yes

So HAVE_ALSA becomes yes, even if it printed no on the line before.
Let me know if you need any more debugging help.
