On Debian 7/Wheezy, I see this file: /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf Provided you have the locate or mlocate or slocate command installed, you can do this (adding the leading 'm' or 's' if needed) to see what path(s) might be on your system: locate alsa-base.conf If all else fails, inform us your distribution and release so someone who knows that distribution can give a more precise answer.
