Hello,

But this looks like I have a different chipset - I seem to have the CT5880.

I don't know if its a clone. As ist was a "bulk" version it had no
real package. It was just the pci card and a cdrom.

I booted with a GENERIC kernel from a NetBSD 1.5ZA snapshot, but it
still gets probed like under 1.5.3_RC1 and playing something still
sounds like too slow and some jitters.

No, the same files plays quite well under my SparcStation5 running 1.5ZA.
The same happens for mp3 files too.

So anyone out there with a CT5880 chip on a Soundblaster AudioPCI 128?
