I've been using the snd_envy24 driver for quite some time now and haven't had 
any stability issues so far (except for the verbose boot panic). I only use 
it for playback though.

If it helps, I can bring my list of things that don't work up-to-date.

BTW, I'm using the envy24 driver on 6.2-RELEASE.
