I know, sorry, I just typed that to get all in one.

Yes, it is.

Correct, accessing /dev/sequencer loads the module and /dev/snd/seq appears, 
but shouldn't the Alsa seq module be loaded automatically on startup? Alsa 
apps won't try to access /dev/sequencer before they actually open 
/dev/snd/seq, right? Thus, no Alsa app will work after a reboot without me 
having loaded the Alsa seq module manually (or having accessed 
/dev/sequencer).

Hope you still have patience to answer me ;)
