FWIW, in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base there is a line install snd /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd && { /sbin/modprobe -Qb snd-seq ; } but running the command between the braces, modprobe tells me that -Q is not a valid option and that it only knows about -q. However, I wonder whether this command is actually reached, for I just reported #500470 against oss-compat which has a file /etc/modprobe.d/oss-compat containing install snd modprobe --ignore-install snd && modprobe snd-seq-oss && modprobe snd-mixer-oss && modprobe snd-pcm-oss but none of the snd-*-oss modules get loaded.
