In the past people had more than one soundcard in the pc, the problem by autoloading modules with udev, could change the order of this sounddevices. This is not that much a problem anymore, modern systems mostly have only one soundcard installed.

At least regarding soundcards this is not true. Also loading the soundcard modules by using the MODULES array can lead to different orders. The only way of having them loaded in a specific order is to using the index parameter in /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf. I don't know how it is for other modules like network cards. There are several modules which don't have an index parameter. Heiko
