Make sure that the busmaster bit is set in the PCI command register:
/* force the busmaster enable bit on */
if (!(command & PCIM_CMD_BUSMASTEREN)) {
device_printf(dev, "busmaster bit not set, enabling\n");
command |= PCIM_CMD_BUSMASTEREN;
pci_write_config(dev, PCIR_COMMAND, command, 2);
}

Not to bounce too much, but you may find the examples in the amr and mlx
drivers easier to follow (maybe not, too). I forgot who I stole them
from though - probably Jonathan's ida code. This isn't your problem
though.
