So, after manually loading the module, ALSA then recognises a sound card
and uses it. However, this isn't what the Debian-supplied kernel is
doing, and AIUI that module is deprecated.

I'm trying to get this working with the default Debian kernel precisely
so that I don't have to keep rolling kernels for it. So I'm still
looking for a solution that helps the kernel use (what I assume to be)
the correct module, ‘snd-aoa’, to drive the sound hardware in this
Powermac G4.
