I have no idea if this even applies to you; however, with an NVivia
card, I had to insert into the sysctl.conf file the following:

	hw.snd.default_unit=4

Perhaps you will need to make some manual changes to the file yourself.

Pathetically, we are still forced to play games to get a simple sound
card to work while everyone else does it automatically.
