Peter, I don't know if this is likely helpful or not, but my Compaq is a 1500c with an ESS ES1869, reporting (on 5.4-RELEASE): sbc0: <ESS ES1869 (Compaq OEM)> at port 0x330-0x331,0x388-0x38b,0x220-0x22f irq 5 drq 5,1 on isa0 pcm0: <ESS 18xx DSP> on sbc0 I too have in kernel: device sound device snd_sbc # ES1869 (Compaq OEM) but after much headscratching it only finally worked after adding: snd_ess_load="YES" # this fixed it .. bridge driver for ESS to /boot/loader.conf. My soon to be built 5-STABLE kernel will include also 'device snd_ess' directly, and I'm expecting that to work too. HTH, Ian
