This is what I have in my /etc/conf.modules file:
# for sb live
# alias sound emu10k1
# the above line was supposedly all that was needed for SB Live
# audio cards to work, apparently that was not the case
# need to double check that at some point
# are there still bad audio messages during boot up
alias char-major-14 emu10k1
pre-install emu10k1 insmod soundcore
post-remove emu10k1 rmmod soundcore
#########
the above works, but there are some error messages during boot up.
I need to see what's going on, but it works for me.
