It's not quite clear to me what your problems are. Your output shows several messages containing "failed", but that's because the kernel looks for devices you don't have. BTW, my experience with those irq-sharing is that it doesn't always cause problems. I'm currently having this on my laptop: pci1: <ATI Mobility-1 graphics accelerator> at 0.0 irq 9 pci0: <Intel 82371AB/EB (PIIX4) USB controller> at 7.2 irq 9 intpm0: <Intel 82371AB Power management controller> port 0xff80-0xff8f irq 9 at device 7.3 on pci0 pcm0: <Yamaha DS-1E (YMF744)> port 0xf08c-0xf08f,0xf0c0-0xf0ff mem 0xfedf8000-0xfedfffff irq 9 at device 13.0 on pci0 pci0: <unknown card> (vendor=0x11c1, dev=0x044a) at 16.0 irq 9 pcic-pci0: <TI PCI-1225 PCI-CardBus Bridge> irq 9 at device 19.0 on pci0 pcic-pci1: <TI PCI-1225 PCI-CardBus Bridge> irq 9 at device 19.1 on pci0 As you see, they're all using irq 9. I'm using pci1,intpm0,pcm0 and pcic-pci0 and experience no problems.

If you want ACPI support, you should use 5.0-current instead of 4.3 (see http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/current-stable.html). But it doesn't always work properly/immediately.
