similiar problem here and what i found that fixes it is if i do a reboot from windows it leaves the sound card in a wierd state that when freebsd comes up it cant communicate with the card so after I shutdown from windows I power cycle the machine and then boot into freebsd. works everytime for me. sucks to have to power off though. --- Jeff Blaufuss <Jeff_Blaufuss@ndsu.nodak.edu> wrote: > Ever since I updated to 4.3-stable (about two after > it was released) I > have been > having a really stange problem with my sound card (a > soundblaster 16 > pci).
