I am using alsasound on my system.  I have also enabled my ac97 onboard sound 
(AK72 AOpen motherboard, via chipset) and am using the snd-card-via686a sound 
module.  If I load it manually with modprobe AND load snd-pcm-oss, then sound 
works.  During bootup, however, when it comes time for automatic sound 
initialization, there are two messages:

Saving mixer settings aumix: error opening mixer
Unloading sound module (snd-card-via686a)

Hence, after bootup I have to manually load the sound modules again.  What do 
I need to do to make it work right off, during bootup?  At the moment, I am 
trying adding the following lines to my rc.local file:

/sbin/modprobe snd-pcm-oss
/sbin/modprobe snd-card-via686a
/usr/sbin/alsactl restore

This wont correct the initialization problem however.  I will STILL get the 
aumix error and the unloading of the snd-card-via686a module, the sound 
modules will merely be reloaded when rc.local is executed.  I would like to 
eliminate the initial error.  How can I do this (presumably, this would mean 
I could remove the lines from rc.local)?
