And if you ./MAKEDEV snd0 ? In 4.0, snd0 is not reserved for ISA cards
anymore. You also might check the volumes with mixer (in 3.x the volumes
with es137x defaulted to 0, should be OK in 4.0).

Also be sure that your sound applications write to the correct device
(/dev/snd1 if you did snd1, /dev/snd0 if you do snd0 - the default for
most applications). 

Karel.
