That is true, thanks.
But the reason this module (which was compiled with the kernel) is not active
must lie in the modprobe.conf lines I was advised to include:
---------------------------------------------------
alias sound-slot-0 snd-intel8x0
install usb-interface /sbin/modprobe uhci-hcd; /bin/true
remove snd-intel8x0 /sbin/modprobe -r snd-pcm-oss; 
	/sbin/modprobe --first-time -r --ignore-remove snd-intel8x0
install snd-intel8x0 /sbin/modprobe --first-time --ignore-install snd-intel8x0 
	&& { /sbin/modprobe snd-pcm-oss; /bin/true; }
remove i810_audio /sbin/modprobe --first-time -r --ignore-remove i810_audio
install i810_audio /sbin/modprobe --first-time --ignore-install i810_audio
---------------------------------------------------

I have no idea what the remove and ignore-remove do,
or are meant to do.
