I found a solution for the problem.
I had to change my aliases in the modules.conf, for example "/dev/snd" to
"/dev//snd" and it worked again.
Yep, this is no typo, I had to use two // instead of one.
Strange thing ... can somebody please explain this to me ?
Why does it only work with "alias /dev//[devname]" but not with "alias
/dev/[devname" with 177 / 178 ???
