Hi,

I have a few questions regarding sound cards and OpenBSD, in particular
the Dell Sound Blaster Live! I seem to have been lumped with.

Is it really completely unsupported as this[1] post seems to indicate?
If it's unsupported why does the kernel seem to think that it is? Bug?
The card was actually bought as a replacement for my motherboards
built-in card (auvea) which hasn't worked as long as i can remember and
doesn't look like it's going to be fixed anytime soon[2]. Is anybody
aware of any (basic) sound card I can buy and be reasonably confident it
will work?

Please CC any replies as I'm not subscribed.

Thanks.
