I have this in /etc/modprobe.conf

alias snd-card-0 snd-ens1371
install snd-ens1371 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-ens1371 && /usr/sbin/alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
remove snd-ens1371 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-ens1371

The "install" part restores the volume settings upon loading of the
sound modules. The "remove" part saves the settings upon unloading
of the modules. That's for my SB card.
