An alternative (sexier?) method would be to configure kmod to save
configuration information and reload it.  Appending this to
modules.conf should work:

pre-remove snd snd-ice1712 alsactl store
post-install snd-ice1712 alsactl restore

Replace snd-ice1712 above with whatever the name of your particular
sound modules is, and you should be set.
