Loading midi soundfonts on startup

After reading these posts I'm still having problems to get the soundfont
to activate at start-up. Starting it manually works just fine.

I've tried all of these suggestions but without luck. I get error
messages at start-up telling me there is something not quite right with
the "soundfont" in modprobe.d (yes, I corrected the paths and inserted
the actual souldfont name).

I'm starting to think that this may be the problem on my system. How do
I find out what the modules on my system are actually called? I use a
creative SB live card.
