I just looked at void linux and it loads every module that brings static
devnode (/dev/snd/seq is a static devnode) like this:

# cat /etc/runit/core-services/01-static-devnodes.sh
for f in $(kmod static-nodes -f devname 2>/dev/null|cut -d' ' -f1); do
        modprobe -bq $f 2>/dev/null
done

I think the rule you saw in udev only touches permissions, not actual
module loading.
