If it is loading OK kldstat will show it and you should get output from cat /dev/sndstat confirming. csa0@pci0:0:6:0:        class=0x040100 card=0x42801013 chip=0x60031013 rev=0x01 hdr=0x00 is matching the #define CS4614_PCI_ID 0x60031013 in the driver code so it really ought to work. If it doesn't try not loading the acpi module at boot. But if HP did something really non standard when they wired this up you could be SOL. -Mike
