On most distributions, it's already there. Look for "soundcore" in the
output of lsmod.

But I think your problem is elsewhere:

"i810_audio" is the kernel's OSS driver, "snd-intel8x0" is the ALSA
driver. You cannot load both at the same time.

Replace the second alias line above with:

  alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
