Which version of NetBSD are you running? What motherboard/chipset do you
have?

Mine shows as:

eap0 at pci0 dev 20 function 0: Ensoniq AudioPCI 97 (rev. 0x08)
eap0: interrupting at irq 15
eap0: Crystal CS4297A codec; headphone, 20 bit DAC, 18 bit ADC, Crystal
Semi 3D
audio0 at eap0: full duplex, mmap, independent
midi0 at eap0: AudioPCI MIDI UART

I used to have problems with sound for a while, until I moved the card
to another pci slot, then the problems went away. I'm using 1.6 with the
MP patches and works like a charm.

Things I'd do: Check for some weird irq sharing interaction, move the
card to another slot, make sure you're running 1.6 and not an old 1.5.x
release.

Cheers,
