Good morning,
	First a bit of info on my box:
Dell Dimension Workstation dual 1.5GHz  Xeon processor
Integrated Analog Devices AD1885 AC'97 audio (This comes with the system,
I called customer service for this info)
Running 4.4-stable

My kernel presently has:
device pcm

dmesg reveals:
pcm0: <Intel 82801BA (ICH2)> port 0xcc40-0xcc7f,0xc800-0xc8ff irq 11 at
device 31.5 on pci0.

and cat /dev/sndstat gives:
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Nov  7 2001 15:52:15
Installed devices:
pcm0: <Intel 82801BA (ICH2)> at io 0xc800, 0xcc40 irq 11 (1p/2r/0v channels duplex)


I have also install realplayer 8.


My problem: Sound from real audio files and mp3 are at super speed.
Regular cd playing is fine.

After searching through the archives I notice that people with the AC'97
audio has it appear in the <> bracket on the line pcm0.  Mine didn't.
(is that a problem??)

Secondly, I also notice some people add the line
device csa
in their kernel although there was no explaination as to why that was
needed.  So I am thinking of doing that.  Is that necessary?

Finally, there was also the mentioning of the ich.c driver.

I notice the file in /usr/src/sys/dev/sound/pic and the line
dev/sound/pci/ich.c optional pcm psi
is already included in /usr/src/sys/conf/files

Do I need to `load' the driver??  If so, how?

Any other ideas/hints on fixing my sound speed problems?


Many thanks in advance.

Ada
