Try enabling msi via hint.pcm.%d.msi="1" . It is disabled by default
due to too many broken msi.
There is a poor man polling mode which can be enabled through sysctl
dev.pcm.%d.polling=1, but I won't recommend this for typical usage
(unless to debug this kind of weird issues).
This regression probably originated from somewhere else since you said
it was working fine under RELENG_6.
