What do you mean by adding 'device pcm' to kernel? I have a kernel that
comes with 4.8-STABLE, i did not recompile it.
grep pcm /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/LINT shows two lines:
device          pcm0 at isa? irq 10 drq 1 flags 0x0
device          pcm

I try to do 'kldload snd_pcm'.  Silence (the kernel is supposed to write
something like PCM... on the first console, am I right?)

mpg123 fails, says can't open /dev/dsp

Also, I try to 'kldload snd_via82c686', no results..
