I never understood any of this module/alias stuff in Linux | or why you had to alias modules.
The aliases for modules simplify things like startup scripts. Example, eth0 is an alias for your NIC. The script the configures networking just does 'modprobe eth0', and the alias causes the correct driver to load. If you change cards later, you only have to change the alias, and every thing works.
Sound-service and such are similar. sound-slot-0 is the first sound card, sound-slot-1 is the second card. The sound-service-X-Y entries are for things like mixer, pcm, midi. X is the card number like in the sound-slot-X line. Y is the service number.
Did you have 2 cards at some point?
