If you look at the news for alsa-base (/usr/share/doc/alsa-base/NEWS.Debian.gz) you'll find the problem. The ALSA startup scripts no longer load up modules for you. This responsibility has been relegated to external programs such as hotplug or discover. If you don't use either you can specify which modules you want loaded in /etc/modules.
