Okay, here's time for a correction: after further testing, I have found 
that it is not the PnP code in and of itself, but rather seems to be 
something changed in both the old sound and the new snd branches of 
sound drivers. After this day of testing I have concluded that the PnP 
code DOES seem to be doing its job nicely, and the fault seems to rest 
on the VoxWare kernel sources. I have noticed that when using cvsup 
recently that these both, and PnP, _have_ changed and it seems to be for 
the worse. If you would like me to test anything out, I am willing to 
rebuild kernels on a minute-by-minute basis =)

Happy FreeBSDing (with or without sound),
Brian Feldman
