Don't know what sound card you are using, but at least with the via686 (the
integrated sound card i'm using ) passing from 0.5 to 0.9 something changed in the
API and the old configuration (or better, the parameter passed to the driver with
the old configuration) caused an error and the driver don't worked.
If you can start sound manually with modprobe, probably there is something wrong
in your /etc/modutils file...
