'Correct' way to load snd-ioctl32 module?

I want to be able to run i386 applications on CentOS4 x86_64
boxes that 
use sound - for this to work the snd-ioctl32 kernel module
needs to be 
loaded.

This module isn't loaded by default by rc.sysinit, and I was
just 
wondering if anyone knew the 'correct' way to get this
module installed.

I can get it to work by adding the following line to
/etc/modprobe.conf:

install snd /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd &&

   /sbin/modprobe snd-ioctl32

This works fine - but is this an acceptable way to do this?
Is there a 
better method?

Thanks

James Pearson

That is how I would do it ...
