[K12OSN] via vt1612 audio driver

This has been on K12 version 5; I've got a version 6 system, but I 
haven't tried it on that yet.  Since both 5 & 6 are LTSP 4.2 based, I 
suspect I'll get a similar result with the ver. 6 server.   Yes, the 
file has 755 permissions.  I am using esd.  I also have Gideon Romm's 
oss-alsa package installed; I need that to support some Dell laptops 
with maestro3 chips.  I tried running 'insmod snd-sis7019' in the shell 
on the terminal, but it says it can't find any such module; it says the 
same thing if I try to load the maestro3 via insmod, so that may not 
actually reveal anything.  If I try 'modprobe snd-sis7019' I get the 
same "module snd_sis7019 error", whereas "modprobe maestro3" does 
nothing, no error, but that's expected.  I think the rc.sound script 
calls modprobe.  Any idea what would cause it to look for snd_sis7019 
rather than snd-sis7019?
