Well, they are being read. If you can't 'cat' a text file, it's a good bet 
the program that needs to read them will fail as well.

$ grep sound /etc/modules.conf
alias sound-slot-0 emu10k1
post-install sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -L 
>/dev/null 2>&1 || :
pre-remove sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -S >/dev/null 
2>&1 || :

Again, the above lines had _nothing_ to do with the problem.

I don't believe those lines load a single module. As I suggested 
previously, comment out or remove those lines from /etc/modules.conf, and 
I'd be willing to bet there is no change in modules loaded.

Could be any number of things.
