Description:   Opened: 2005-08-10 10:58 0000
Background:
After updating a kernel I sometimes forget to rebuild modules so when I boot I
have the alsa modules missing. 

Steps to reproduce:
1. /etc/init.d/alsasound stop (make sure that the modules are not loaded)
2. rm /lib/modules/<kernel>/alsa-driver/acore/snd.ko
3. /etc/init.d/alsasound start
4. /etc/init.d/alsasound status

Behaviour:
It gives a bunch of errors as expected but alsasounds status still reports
alsasound as started but it is most certain that sound is not working. 

Expected:
When one of the modules is missing the init script should stop executing and
report failure with for example return 1.

Still present in alsa-utils-1.0.12

The problem is that one might be using built-in static support for ALSA, which
would break if we check modules presence.

I've fixed it in 1.0.14_rc2-r1 without revbump, as I just added it yesterday,
and this is a minor problem anyway.
