I've had a SoundBlaster Awe64 in my FreeBSD box for quite a while, but have
yet been able to get it to work. I've seen Conrad Sabatier's page, and seem
to have everything set up properly. Dmesg shows:

sb0 at 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 on isa
snd0: <SoundBlaster 16 4.16> 
sbxvi0 at drq 5 on isa
snd0: <SoundBlaster 16 4.16> 
sbmidi0 at 0x330 on isa
snd0: <SoundBlaster MPU-401> 
opl0 at 0x388 on isa
snd0: <Yamaha OPL3 FM> 
awe0 at 0x620 on isa
awe0: <SoundBlaster EMU8000 MIDI (RAM512k)>

This system is SMP (2x233 on an A-Trend ATC-6260) with onboard scsi, a WinTV
card, XL ethernet, and 2 voodoo2 boards. And the AWE64.

The symptoms my machine displays are:

	$ cat /kernel > /dev/audio
	cat: stdout: Input/output error

This plays about a second of garbage, silence, and the above error message.
The console also shows

	Sound: DMA (output) timed out - IRQ/DRQ config error?

mpg123 and quake2 will generate the same console messages. AFAIK there is no
IRQ or DRQ conflict, but then the soundcard should work ;) Some of the IRQ's
for devices look odd, tho:

$ dmesg | grep irq
config> pnp 1 0 os enable irq0 5 drq0 1 drq1 5 port0 0x220 port1 0x330 port2 0x388

ppc0 at 0x378 irq 7 flags 0x40 on isa
sb0 at 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 on isa

Anybody got any clues what i can do?
