Yep, that's what you need to do. You'll likely want to comment out
module-udev-detect (you'll see some commented lines showing you how to
load module-alsa-sink etc., so putting it around there should be good

Yep again.

Once we get 2.0, I'd like to get these reviewed and merged. I know they
already work, so I'm hoping for it not to take long at all.
