Hi,
I have a P&P sound card with OPTi 82C931 chip, supposed to be "Microsoft
Windows Sound System Compatible".  The leaflet calls it "OPTiSound 64
Deluxe" "1817 Series Sound Card".

NetBSD 1.4 reports:
  isapnp0: read port 0x202
  isapnp0: <OPTi Audio 16, OPTFFFF, , AUX0> not configured
  isapnp0: <OPTi Audio 16, OPT9310, , OPTi Audio 16> port 0x534/4,0x380/12,0x220/16,0xe0c/4 irq 5 drq 0,0 not configured
  isapnp0: <OPTi Audio 16, OPT0001, , Game Port> port 0x200/1 not configured
  isapnp0: <OPTi Audio 16, OPT0002, , MPU401> port 0x300/2 irq 5 not configured

When I force it to use wss in the isapnpdevs, I get:
  wss0 at isapnp0 port 0x534/4,0x380/12,0x220/16,0xe0c/4 irq 5 drq 0,0
  wss0: ad1848_probe failed

I even tried to add a kludge to the drq allocation, moving it from drq 0,0
to drq 0,1, but that didn't help.

A friend of mine succeeded with the card on FreeBSD/i386, it detects:
  CSN 1 Vendor ID: OPT0931 [0x3109143e] Serial 0xffffffff Comp ID: @@@0000 [0x00000000]
  AD_WAIT_INIT FAILED 1002 0xff
  mss_attach <OPTi931>1 at 0x604 irq 10 dma 3:1 flags 0x11
  pcm1 (OPTi931 <OPTi931> sn 0xffffffff) at 0x604-0x60b irq 10 drq 3 flags 0x11 on isa


Is there any chance of getting it to work?  I only care for 16bit PCM
stereo 44.1kHz and maybe 8kHz, Midi and joystick aren't important.
