If you have a printer port on the system at irq7, you might want to try
moving
the irq to 10. I'm also running drq3 because of a conflict with my
Wangtek
tape drive at drq1.

I'm running 2.1.6 and here's my config, for giggles...

sb0 at 0x220 irq 10 drq 3 on isa
sb0: <SoundBlaster 16 4.11>
sbxvi0 at 0x0 drq 5 on isa
sbxvo0: <SoundBlaster 16 4.11>
sbmidi0 at 0x330 on isa
<SoundBlaster MPU-401>
opl0 at 0x388 on isa
opl0: <Yamaha OPL-3 FM>
