The USB host controller driver initializes before the sound startup
scripts are run, so the USB audio driver gets loaded first.

"audio" is the kernel's OSS driver. The ALSA driver would be
snd-usb-audio.

This entry tells ALSA which module to load when the first sound card isn't
yet loaded, but this is not exactly what you want. To tell the driver what
sound card index to use, use the index option.
Add these lines to your modules.conf:
alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio
options snd-via82xx index=0
options snd-usb-audio index=1
