What soundcard are you using? I have > experienced problems with the i8x0 alsa drivers (since alsa-1.0.6). It is attempting to load the driver as per the preexisting successful alsa configuration and this fails. I had to place the sequencer in /etc/modules at one point when this was being skipped but load of snd-mpu401 fails. I am using it to drive and older sw60xg sound generator. This card uses no IRQ or DMA, just a port address. So the driver is being modprobed with appropriate port=0x300 irq=-1 options. Maybe this stuff has changed?
