The man pages are not the clearest here. Indeed; I'd spent days googling around lists and pages, at last found: http://gerda.univie.ac.at/freebsd-laptops/index.pl?action=show_laptop_detail&laptop=496 about the 1750, which was wrong (for the 1500c) about the device hints - for unbridged devices, says sound(4) - but the needed clue for loading both snd_sbc and snd_ess. > snd_ess(4) implies that all three drivers are needed but snd_sbc(4) > has no reference to it - which is what confused me. snd_ess(4) has been updated then; at 5.4 it didn't mention snd_sbc. Building a 5-STABLE world right now, I'm a bit curious as to which of the more recent sound stuff has found its way into 5.5 .. hi Ariff!
