Thanks.  I did not find it myself because I was searching for CMI8738, 
not cmi.

Unfortunately, when I try to load it, it fails:

-> kldload snd_cmi
kldload: can't load snd_cmi: File exists

which seems odd.  kldload(2) is returning -1.

kldunload does not work, either:

-> kldunload snd_cmi
kldunload: can't find file snd_cmi: No such file or directory
