Subject:   The "Creative Technology Ensoniq AudioPCI" card.

I am attempting to configure an "Ensoniq AudioPCI" to run under
FreeBSD 3.0-xxx-BETA.  As usual, actual technical information
about the card is virtually nonexistant.  The vendor said it
was a "sound blaster 16 PCI" and that name was the closest he
could come to a sound card that had worked for me in the past.

Unfortunately, this seems to be very different.  Nothing I try
seems to work.  The only kernel driver I can get to concede
the existence of the card is "awe0" and (I believe) this is
only for controlling "advanced wave effects" when using the
real sound device.

Can someone identify this species of sound card and suggest
a driver?

Also, can someone suggest a sound card that does work with
FreeBSD?  I am looking for a stable procuct line.  Creative
seems to plow its product line under every six months and
I am getting sick and tired of discovering that the old
drivers just don't work anymore.

Thanks,
