In your modules.conf do the following

alias char-major-14 ymfpci

Then do a depmod -a (required only once.. either do this or reboot..but I
don't think that is necessary with Linux!)

What this does is to tell the module loader in the kernel to load ymfpci
whenever a device with MAJOR number 14 is opened.
Incidentally MAJOR 14 is the sound driver.

This should automatically load the sound driver whenever sound is required
and unload it when not needed...
