Well, I can't think of anything else. Try searching the mail archives
for "vibra" or take a look at http://freebsd.lanfear.com/scdb.html
where there is a lot of useful info for setting up many different
soundcards under FreeBSD including 2 for SB Vibra cards, one using
pcm0 and another using sb0, sbmidi0 etc.

Maybe someone else here can help out.
