After warm boot Alsa not detecting sound card

Hi,
   This is not a new problem on my system, but I wanted to get up to
date with Alsa before I presented it here. If I do a cold boot then Alsa
is correctly installed and both my HDSP 9652 and my MidiSport 2x2 are
detected and work fine. However, after a warm boot Alsa never installs
for the HDSP 9652.

   A BIT IMPROVEMENT with 0.9.8 is that Alsa will now load if I stop and
start Alsa by hand after the warm boot, so thanks for that! I used to
have to completely power down with 0.9.6, so this is a big improvement!
However, I'd like to get this fixed so that even these by-hand steps are
not required.

   After a warm boot the card is visible as a PCI device, but it isn't
given an interrupt and the drivers aren't loaded:

  I can at this point stop and restart Alsa and everything works:

At this point the card has an interrupt, the drivers are loaded, and
everything works.

My modules.conf file is attached. 

   Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Cheers,
Mark
