the "device pcm0" needs some parameters. IRQ, DMA (FreeBSD calls this drq)
and whether its on ISA or PCI. Frankly, I have no idea what settings
you're going to need. The only thing I've got the pcm drivers to work on
is Soundblaster.  By the way, my line looked like this:

device pcm0 at isa ? port ? irq 10 drq 1 flags 0x0 

(or something like that). Also, not the IRQ is NOT the IRQ for your sound
card. I think pcm0 takes IRQ 10 and translates somehow. My sound card is
actually using IRQ 5!
