Hello,

I was wondering if anyone has any experience of 
SoundBlaster compatible cards on a laptop,
FreeBSD 2.1.5.
With the sb0 device compiled into the kernel I
get

sb0 at 0x220 irq 7 drq 1 on isa
sb0: <SoundBlaster Pro 3.1>

which agrees with the values I configured from DOS.
If I try to 'cat speech.wav > /dev/dsp' the loudspeaker
clicks once and then nothing else happens.
I have a SB 16 card on another machine which works OK
so perhaps there is a simple reason why the SB Pro
compatible doesn't work.

Thanks,
Geoff Martindale
