I see.  Is your postfix able to access /var/state/saslauthd?  It
should be:

	drwxrwx---   2 cyrus  mail   512 Jul 19 04:52 saslauthd

Old cyrus-sasl2 port made the directory with wrong permission, and
postfix couldn't access it.  This problem was corrected.  I believe
postfix user belongs to mail group, so that postfix can access the
directory.

Oops, I didn't answer your question.  If you want to use saslauthd for
plain text password, the correct contents of smtpd.conf should be:

	pwcheck_method: saslauthd

Sincerely,
