Kevin,

If you get an answer to your question, or your problem with your USB 
sound card sorted out, if you could email me I'd appreciate it.. I'd 
like to know what you did..
I have an Onkyo USB audio interface that absolutely sings on my other 
computers and I'd love to get it working on my 5.2.1 (release) system... 
I've been monkeying with it for days..


But it locks up, exactly as you describe..

Thank you,

Chris

Hi,

I am trying to get a Creative Sound Blaster MP3+ USB sound card to
work under 5.2.1. I added snd_uaudio_load="YES" to /boot/loader.conf,
and dmesg shows the device being found:

uaudio_add_selector: NOT IMPLEMENTED
uaudio0: audio rev 1.00
pcm0: <USB Audio> on uaudio0

There are /dev/dsp* and /dev/mixer entries, and usbdevs shows

addr 1: OHCI root hub, SiS
  addr 2: USB Audio, Creative
addr 1: OHCI root hub, SiS
addr 1: OHCI root hub, SiS
  addr 2: ORTEK USB Combo Keyboard, ORTEK

However any time I interact with the sound card, for example starting
esd or altering the volume with the GNOME volume slider, the system
locks up hard.  Will not respond to CTRL-ALT-Backspace or -Delete.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Kevin Wortman
