Okay, I didn't know to look in modules.conf.  Fortunately, I made a 
backup of my system before I did the upgrade, so I compared my new 
modules.conf to my old one.  The 3 lines that set up my sound system 
modules had been removed for some reason, but everything else was 
exactly the same.  So I copied in the old modules.conf and it works fine 
now.
