This is from /etc/conf.d/alsasound: |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
# LOAD_ON_START: |
| 16 |
# Do you want to load sound modules when alsasound starts? |
| 17 |
# Note: The Gentoo ALSA developers encourage you to build your sound |
| 18 |
# drivers into the kernel unless the device is hotpluggable or |
| 19 |
# you need to supply specific options (such as model= to HD-Audio). |
| 20 |
# no - Do not load modules |
| 21 |
# yes - Load modules |
| 22 |
LOAD_ON_START="yes" |
| 23 |

I've never had a hot-pluggable sound card, so I can only guess whether |
| 25 |
hald would somehow load that sound module for you. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
So say LOAD_ON_START="no", compile the on-board sound driver into the |
| 28 |
kernel and do the other one as a module -- and let us know if it works |
| 29 |
when you plug it in :o) |
