Just for grins, (being unemployed I have lots of time) I deleted the

determine if kudzu would properly discover my Creative Labs/Ensonic PCI
1371 Card. (I update my Fedora system everyday.) Now kudzu selects the right
driver in the "alias sound-slot-0 snd-ens1371" statement but the install
sound-slot-0 state does not load the driver.
It would get loaded automatically upon accessing the ALSA audio driver
device file. If, however, you only tried applications that access e.g.
/dev/dsp (supported by ALSA's OSS layer), the native ALSA driver would not
be loaded.
