The odd thing you have a rev 0x06 card... most of the problems have been with rev 0x07 or higher. The mixer stuff is quite odd also, the values reported are read from the card. So that should what the cards thinks things are set to. NOTE bass and treble are always being reported as supported even though they may not be by the card. I should look at removing that behavior.

I'm sure the proper sound experts will reply, but my first
though is that the card may have things like the
line in, mic in, or PC speaker in volumes up too high.

The static you are hearing is static from say the line-in.

If you use the mixer command, and turn down these
inputs, you may get rid of the static.

I'd like to know, incase it is something I can help fix before
FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE comes out (which is in a few weeks time)

I recently cvsup'd -CURRENT both so that I could run StarOffice 5.1 (it's an SMP box), and to check it out (as it will soon be a Release, and I see a lot of good stuff going on there, like the SMP locking, NFS fixes etc.). I've got a Micron W6-Li Lightning board with integrated Creative Vibra16X and Adaptec 7880, and I run a WinTV card as well. I also have the ISA Waveblaster daughter card that makes the sound setup effectively an AWE32. After upgrading, I discovered that I couldn't get the sound chip on the motherboard to get probed correctly. Given the Plug'n'Pray changes in -current, I pretty much expected to lose AWE32 support (as I can no longer use the 'pnp' commands in 'userconfig' to probe the "magic" ports for the AWE32). However, I wasn't expecting to lose the ability to use VoxWare altogether. Without PNPBIOS, I got these messages (config file was the same one as used under -STABLE, just converted by the simple expedient of fixing the complaints from 'config', mostly changing 'controller' to 'device' etc.): sb_reset_dsp failed sb_reset_dsp failed awe0 at port 0x620 on isa0 AWE32: not detected unknown0: at port 0x621-0x624 on isa0 unknown1:
