udev rules can/should be extended for specific devices, e.g. KERNEL=="controlC[0-9]*", RUN+="/usr/lib/alsa.hotplug" To ease the migration you can of course re-enable the /etc/dev.d and /etc/hotplug.d directories by using udev_run_devd and udev_run_hotplugd (to be found in udev/extras/run_directory) but it shouldn't be a permanent solution.
