There are no other files in /etc/modprobe.d, and no /etc/modprobe.conf
file. There is a /lib/modprobe.d directory, although such a directory
isn't mentioned in the relevant man pages, but it's empty anyway.

What I have is three devices that always exist, one of which is the
Hifiberry DAC that I want to use, and the others are the PWM audio and the
HDMI audio. Then there are the unknown number of MIDI devices that someone
might plug in. I tried specifying various cards_limit values. I tried the
following, and nothing changed:
options snd cards_limit=8 \
slots=snd-soc-hifiberry-dacplus,vc4,snd-bcm2835,snd-usb-audio
(vc4 is the HDMI, apparently).
This is really behaving as though "snd" isn't the right device name to
address the slots option to.
