Motivation for this change

Since we select everything as a module, snd_hda_codec_ca0132 is built as
well. DSP loading is not enabled by default, but without it the
soundcard produces timeouts within ALSA and does not emit sound.
Explicitly enable the firmware loading to ensure Soundblaster
Z/Zx/ZxR/Recon devices can be used with NixOS.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.
