Subject:   How to get AWE64 ISA PnP working?

Sorry to bother everyone with this, I'm sure the answer is quite simple,
but I'm having trouble getting my ISA Plug & Pray AWE 64 Value working in
3.2-STABLE.

I followed the instructions at
http://www.neosoft.com/~conrads/awepnp-freebsd.html up until it said to
edit /boot/boot.conf.  I didn't have a /boot/boot.conf so I put the line in
/boot/loader.rc instead.  The card is apparently being found by PnP and the
kernel sound drivers, although it's being identified as a Soundblaster 16
w/o AWE.

I did do a "./MAKEDEV snd0", but if I try to play something in X11Amp it
just refuses.  The KDE .mid player said something to the effect of "cant
open device", and trying to cat a file to /dev/dsp0 results in "Device Busy".

Here is some info:

dmesg:

Anybody care to point out my error so that I may put that AWE 64 to some use?
