Thanks - putting "modprobe blahblah" into /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit worked.
Though even earlier I was "modprobing" the modules into memory using a
script: /etc/rc.d/init.d/alsasound, which is linked to from
/etc/rc.d/rc3.d/Sxxalsasound. If I do this, autoclean is set, whereas
if I modprobe it from rc.sysinit, autoclean is unset. I haven't yet
figured out why..

Thanks anyway, my basic problem is solved! :-)
