Kyle,
Seeing that the snd drivers have been deprecated (made obsolete) in 4.0 and
5.0, i'd suggest another driver. sbc has taken the place of snd. My AWE64
works with the combination of pcm and sbc drivers. Read the man pages for
these to gain some more iinsight on their operation. Give it a shot and get
rid of those unsupported devices in your kernel. By the way, pcm is enough.
You don't need pcm0 in there with it.
Regards,
Otter
