I had the same problem and it drove me nuts for several days. I have a gateway 7325GZ and had to change ac97.c and ac97.h. I don't have my fbsd drive in now (in debian right now) but I googled and belive it was http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-bugs/2004-May/006684.html that got it working for me. In linux (debian atleast) I have a script on starting X that mutes the external amp to get sound working (amixer -c 0 sset 'External Amplifier',0 mute) maybe one of those will help get you pointed in the right direction. Just remember if you diff the ac97.h and ac97.c, when you cvsup it will replace those files (which I leave alone so I can test newer versions before rediffing) -mark
