Just one more note that might be helpful but doesn't tell me that
much:

I wrote:

dmesg reports at boot time:

pcm0: <Aureal Vortex 8820> port 0xb000-0xb007,0xb400-0xb407 mem 0xde800000-0xde81ffff irq 10 at device 11.0 on pci0
pcm0: irq test failed
pcm0: codec timeout reading register 2 (fe7605)
pcm0: codec timeout reading register 26 (fe7605)
pcm0: ac97 codec reports dac not ready

I didn't change a thing in the hardware setup of the
machine. Honestly, I can't imagine where and why the irq test fails.

When trying to make some noise using `mpg123 foobar.mp3`, syslog says:

pcm0: play interrupt timeout, channel dead

That's my output of `cat /dev/sndstat`:
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Jul 31 2000 17:48:27
Installed devices:
pcm0: <Aureal Vortex 8820> at memory 0xde800000 irq 10 (1p/0r channels duplex)

Any hints are welcome and appreciated.
