[Solved] Strange error with sound modules

If i modprobe any sound modules, i get strange errors which tell me to lookup dmesg.

The error output looks like

WARNING: Error inserting snd_mixer_oss (/lib/modules/2.6.13-ARCH/kernel/sound/core/snd-pcm.ko): unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

FATAL: Error inserting snd_pcm_oss (/lib/modules/2.6.13-ARCH/kernel/sound/core/oss/snd-pcm-oss.ko): Unknown symbol in modules or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

The same for my soundcard drivers etc, simply any alsa module.

My modprobe.conf looks as follows.

install snd-pcm modprobe -i snd-pcm; modprobe snd-pcm-oss; true
install snd-seq modprobe -i snd-seq; modprobe snd-seq-oss; true

options snd device_mode=666
alias snd-card-0 snd-ens1397
alias sound-slot-0 snd-ens1371

Well, this should work fine (as i know). Looking up dmesg i get the following:

...
snd_pcm_oss: Unknown symbol snd_info_unregister
snd_pcm_oss: Unknown symbol snd_info_get_line
snd_pcm_oss: Unknown symbol snd_pcm_format_width
...

I've got this problem since i updated to 2.6.13-ARCH.

Since this problem causes hotplug to take 10 minutes to start, it's annoying. I'd appreciate any hint what i could try.

Thank you,
