You need an alias to tell it what name to find those services as. It
isn't unusual to not have that as a module, and simply want to turn it
off in /etc/modules.conf:
alias sound-service-0-0 off

Or, in my case, the name of the soundblaster live driver module that
services that service is named emu10k1, so I have:
alias sound-service-0-0 emu10k1

So either alias it to "off" or to the name of the module that services
it. I have no idea what module services your card, and if the ability is
compiled directly in (not as a module) you simply want it off anyway.
