Either of those should do the job.

You mean with 'find /lib/modules -name snd\* -exec rm {} \;'?  
That was just a brute-force method to get rid of any spurious sound 
modules you might have installed in the kernel's module tree.  If 
you give that command _after reinstalling the linux-image, you're 
deleting the modules you have just reinstalled.

When I said "purge" I meant the command 'dpkg --purge', or the 
corresponing action in aptitude.  When explaining what you do, it's 
better to paste the actual things you typed.  Commands speak louder 
than words.  Or at least clearer.
