you need to do three things
1)
in /etc/conf.modules (modules.conf in other distros)

path[usb]=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/`uname -v`
path[usb]=/lib/modules/`uname -r`
path[usb]=/lib/modules/
path[usb]=/lib/modules/default

alias usb-0000.0000.01.00.00  audio.o
alias usb-0000.0000.03.01.00  mouse.o

The location /lib/modules etc may differ according to your distro (but i doubt
it)

2)
run depmod -a

3)
never use insmod. not ever. use modprobe instead.
