When the USB host controller driver is loaded, the hotplug mechanism
automatically loads the drivers for all connected devices. This
happens before the init scripts try to load the sound drivers, so
audio.o will load first in this case. To prevent this, you can either
- add audio to /etc/hotplug/blacklist to prevent it from being loaded
automatically; or
- add a pre-install line to modules.conf to force es1371 to be loaded
before audio; or
- use ALSA where you can tell each driver at which index to load.
