i've not used discover, but hotplug may be what's loading your sound
drivers by their pci device.  you may need to blacklist the one you
don't want automatically loaded by creating a file in
/etc/hotplug/blacklist.d/ and listing the modules you want ignored.

my system seems to have a /etc/hotplug/blacklist.d/alsa_base file which
lists all the oss drivers to keep them from loading.  maybe you can
install the alsa-base package and get your system to use alsa (and oss
emulation) only.
