There is a dir /etc/modprobe.d. The files including here are read
from modul-init-tools and are put via update-modules to
/lib/modules/modprobe.conf.

Compare:
2.4                              2.6
/etc/modules.conf                /lib/modules/modprobe.conf
/etc/modutils                    /etc/modprobe.d
/etc/modules                     /etc/modules

The sound aliases can be found in /etc/alsa/modutils. Ther should be
a link from /etc/modprobe.d/alsa|whatever to /etc/alsa/modutils/1.0|whatever ;-)
