Subject:   4_stable hangs after probing OPTi 931

I just installed 4.4 release, and then upgraded to 4-stable earlier 
this week.  Today, I noticed that my sound
card is supported.  It is a OPTi 931 ISA (PnP) sound card.

Following the instructions on the the handbook page:

	 
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/sound-device.html

which specifically mention this card, I added the following line to
my kernel config:

	device		pcm

I did this and recompiled my kernel.

After I recompile, it goes through most of the normal boot-up stuff 
until it probes the sound card.  I see that it has probed the card,
and has identified it as an OPTi931, which seems to be correct.  I
left it alone for about 20 minutes, and still it went no farther than
printing this message out.

I noticed (by searching through google) that at least one other person
has had this problem.

I was able to boot my machine using the same kernel after removing the 
sound card.

Any ideas?

Please copy me on any reply, as I am not on the list.
