add these lines to your kernel config:

options         "P1003_1B"
options         "_KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING"
options         "_KPOSIX_VERSION=3D199309L"

that may help, if not then I don't know what to say, sound on
my soundblaster has been broken for me when using xmms (as well
as previous versions of x11amp) for about a month now with=20
-current.

However, the output by your kernel suggests a misconfiguration?

why don't you twiddle with the IRQ/DMA a bit, perhaps some
other device is also using the same settings?
