After that install and subsequent kernel build/install with device pcm, not only didn't I have any pcm line in my dmesg, but I didn't have any snd_maestro3.ko entries in /boot/kernel. Just to make sure I wasn't dealing with a dead maestro3, I booted into XP and, sure enough, the sound worked. I nuked /usr/src and /usr/obj, cvsupped the sources and the buildworld && buildkernel && installkernel is proceeding as I type this. If this doesn't work --and confidence is low-- I'm pretty near stumped. There is no difference in hardware (or BIOS settings) from the identical laptop running 4.9-STABLE. Ideas, suggesstions, rants welcome. Tim Kellers CPE/NJIT
