Looks like you have run into a new variant of the issue :-)

The previous stuff seems to have been tied to USB and (in my case) SMP.

Does disabling (or enabling) ACPI make any difference?

In any case, it might be worth setting 'hw.pci.enable_io_modes=0' in 
/boot/loader.conf and seeing if it makes any difference.
