 I'm not sure which release notes you are referring to.

http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/releasenotes

 Everything has been upgraded and is working. Even the audio cards if I
 create the /dev links.
 
 Also, keep in mind that udevd will create the links if I start it
 manually, which might seem to indicate that something is not executing
 in the right order at boot time.

Did you or did you not follow the step-by-step upgrade procedure given
in the release notes?

While I had not read it at the time, I believe that I have done
everything mentioned and had successfully done about 6 sarge to etch
upgrades prior to this one (although none of those machines had sound
cards).

Update! - I don't know exactly what I did last night, but today when I
reboot it, it is working. 

One thing was to delete all the files in /etc left over from sarge that
were not present on a fresh install: modprobe.conf, modprobe.devfs, and
modutils.
