I have a Crystal CS4280 PCI soundcard properly installed in my computer

I've compiled and recompiled my kernel again and again with sound entries 
from LINT and I now have the following lines as per the Handbook:

device pcm 
device csa

Funny thought that I had one iteration without the csa device and I got the 
exact same results!   hmmmm.  Anyway, here are my current results:

# dmesg|grep pcm
pcm0: <CS461x PCM Audio> on csa0 

# dmesg|grep csa
csa0: <CS4280/CS4614/CS4622/CS4624/CS4630> mem 
0xd5400000-0xd54fffff,0xd5500000-0xd5500fff irq 5 at device 12.0 on pci0
csa: card is Unknown/invalid SSID (CS4614)    
pcm0: <CS461x PCM Audio> on csa0

# cat sndstat [gives me the following readout]: 
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Dec 31 2001 12:07:00 
Installed devices: 
pcm0:  <CS461x PCM Audio> at irq 5 (1p/1r/0v channels duplex)

It looks like my CS4280 is recognized on the csa0 line, but then the 
following dmesg line says it's not a CS4614.  I don't get it.  

Since I received a pcm0, I created the device nodes for snd0. Everything went 
well. In KDE with the sound config screens set to default, I get nothing 
except the following error message:

Sound server fatal error: /tmp/mcop-mark is not owned by user.

I don't understand the error message. I logged in as Mark then su to root 
before running startx. Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Even if I 
could somehow test sound in BSD before entering KDE would be nice.
