On mine when it configured the sound card, it made entries
in /etc/modprobe.conf
This occurred for me at install, but also gets done when you use the
system-settings -> soundcard detection tool.
This is what is in my modprobe.conf file that both saves and restores
the settings for me.
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
options snd-card-0 index=0
install snd-intel8x0 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-intel8x0
&& /usr/sbin/a lsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
remove snd-intel8x0 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1
|| : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-intel8x0
Note that the install and remove lines are wrapped by mailer, but are
actually one single line each.
You may try looking there, or try running the soundcard detection tool
to see if it properly sets up modprobe for you.
