alias module hell

[gm c <gm_c2@yahoo.com>]

I have g3 powerbook with debian unstable and 2.6.10.
I can modprobe snd-powermac and a bunch of modules load. I then run
xmms with alsa and play a file ok. After removing sound modules-
I put alias snd-card-0 snd-powermac in /etc/modprobe.d/alias and/or
/etc/modutils/sound (run update-modules) and the file will not play.
No modules load.
What does one do to get sound modules (or any other) to auto load?
