To explain what happens here in the 4.x case ...

The /dev/audio and /dev/dsp symlinks get pointed to the last device
created. So when running MAKEDEV in this order snd0/pcm0's devices get
made first and the symlinks pointed to them, then snd1/pcm1's devices get
created and the symlinks repointed to snd1's devices.
