I have a PC164 with an ISA Vibra16C, 5-CURRENT.  I haven't tried
anything really stressful (e.g. fullduplex use for telephony), but
normal sound playback works just fine.  Any stuttering is clearly
related to competing CPU or disk usage.  I'm usually playing sound
through esd, which probably doesn't help.

All local disk is on SCSI, sym(4).
