Well, it seems that was all needed, pciconf -lv showed the onboard card to be a VT8233/33A AC97 Enhanced Audio Controller, and after kldload snd_via8233.ko it's suddenly pcm1! Even plays mp3's through mpg123 -a /dev/pcm1.0 :) Just out of curiosity, does anyone know why kldload snd_driver.ko only loaded the one driver? Thanks a lot!
