I've update my kernel, put in the SND_DEBUG flag and set
"dev.emu10kx.0.debug=1"
Everything worked.
Then I unset the flag.
Everything still worked.
Then I did a reboot without the flag in loader.conf
Everything still worked!
Weird...
If it fails again i'll try to find something usefull in my loggings for you.
Thanks for the help.
