I have fixed the problem manually. The gnomemeeting.soundlist is
installed in /usr/local/etc/sound/events, I make a symbol link in
/etc/sound/events, then the gnome-control-center can read it.

Now my GM can ring when incoming call. Still only an application
can have sound at the same time... Is it the ALSA or Linux's
nature, or my wrong configuration? ... Should I ask this question
on ALSA's forum?

My gnome doesn't seem stable. The most oddness is that it often
mess gnome applications' (e.g. gnomemeeting) font face when I run
the sound preference of the gnome-control-center...
(not everytime) the sound preference of the gnome-control-center.
