I have a CPi D266XT running 5-current.

Mine is detected as a CS 4237B under windows with the same values.

I never got it to work with "device csa", but in 
the distant past running 4-stable my sound had worked with

options PNPBIOS 
device pcm

Then it stopped working for a while. I've never managed to 
get it working with only "device pcm" again. But now I am 
running 5-current with the following 

device pcm
device sbc

and my card is found as a soundblaster pro.  See dmesg extract:

sbc0: <SoundBlaster Pro> at port 0x220-0x22f irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x15 on isa0
pcm0: <SB DSP 3.02> on sbc0

and 

5>glane@nucnb2:~$ cat /dev/sndstat
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm)
Installed devices:
pcm0: <SB DSP 3.02> at io 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 bufsz 4096 (1p/1r/0v channels duplex default)

Everything works great. So give this a go and see what happens.

Cheers,
Greg
