Sound module?

Hi. I was wondering if it's possible to convert ALSA to a kernel module because there is a way to fix a sound issue I have by using a modprobe configuration file. I don't think it's possible to supply paramaters when ALSA is built-in to the kernel.

I need to run this on ALSA (alsa-base):

options snd-hda-intel model=sony-assamd

Much help appreciated,
Cheers!

Re: Sound module?

snd-hda-intel is a module:

[david@darkstar ~]$ locate snd-hda-intel
/lib/modules/2.6.26-ARCH/kernel/sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-intel.ko

and I'm happily passing options to it here.  Did you try adding the options line you need to /etc/modprobe.conf or /etc/modprobe.d/sound?
