Anything that's compatible with the csa freebsd driver is good to get 
(cs42xx/cs46xx compatible in ALSA/OSS). Some cards are of course the 
older soundblasters, as well as the turtle beach cards (made by 
Voyetra). As suggested before, there're also the SB Live! (emu10k1) 
cards which are fairly universally supported as well.
