If you are still having problems this is my setup

/etc/modprobe.conf just
has

alias sound snd-cs4236

doing modprobe sound brings it up

to get it to come up automatically on boot I
edited /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit, found the following section

if LC_ALL=C fgrep -q "options sound dmabuf=1" /etc/modules.conf
2>/dev/null ; then
  alias=`/sbin/modprobe -c | awk '/^alias sound / { print $3 }'`
  if [ -n "$alias" -a "$alias" != "off" ]; then
      action $"Loading sound module ($alias): " modprobe sound
  fi
  alias=`/sbin/modprobe -c | awk '/^alias sound-slot-0 / { print $3 }'`
  if [ -n "$alias" -a "$alias" != "off" ]; then
      action $"Loading sound module ($alias): " modprobe sound-slot-0
  fi
fi

and deleted the top line ie
if LC_ALL=C fgrep -q "options sound dmabuf=1" /etc/modules.conf
2>/dev/null ; then

and the closing if

and finally put alsactl restore in rc.local

not totally elegant but it works

Have you checked whether something else is getting initialised and
getting in the way (check what aliases you have in /etc/modprobe.conf)
