Hello Tiarnan,
Thanks for your input. I had already turned off the PNPBIOS option. I tried your
suggestion of recompiling with:
options PCI_ENABLE_IO_MODES
Judging by dmesg, it made no difference. It also did not allow any of the
software to access /dev/dsp. Same error messages as described in first post.
I forgot to mention in my first post that I have also tried troubleshooting this by
adding snd_maestro_load="YES" to /boot/loader.conf. This made no difference either.
I have since commented it out.
This is a frustrating problem. The card is in a laptop, so it won't likely be easy to change.
If I cannot get this sorted out, I may have to consider moving to an OS which will
support the card. After all the time I put into learning about FBSD and Unix, I would
really had to migrate away.
I am willing to jump through flaming hoops and walk over burning coals to
get /dev/dsp working. If anyone else has suggestions, please let me know.
Thanks again!

turn off PNPBIOS, and make sure that your BIOS
is set to "non PNP operating system."
