Sorry folks, threw people a bit of a curve ball - serves me right for 
responding from memory.  The correct file to change is 
/etc/discover-modprobe.conf. All I needed to do was to add a line 
skip=i810_audio.

BTW, Don't forget to make sure you've got the correct alsa-modules 
installed for your kernel. It didn't get auto-depended on my system, so 
that might be an issue too.  I'm now using alsa-modules-2.4.25-1.686.
