I don't know what is required for Ubuntu -- I'm just one of the
Debian maintainers. However it might be useful if I pointed out
that adding these entries to the module loader config:
can be done before the ALSA drivers are patched; they will have no
effect because, without the patch, ALSA interprets all negative
values for "index" the same way and the default value is -1.
Conversely, the kernel can be patched without adding these entries.
So there is no need to make the kernelland and userland changes in
sequence.
