It will be loaded on startup if there is a startup script that loads it.
Creating such a script is the responsibility of the distribution or the
system administrator.  >:-)

The ALSA sequencer is accessed through the ALSA library, and the library
will access /dev/aloadSEQ if /dev/snd/seq isn't found. So, when using ALSA
applications, the sequencer will be loaded transparently.
