Ummm... I fetched those files, and there are _no_ differences between
those files and their equivalents, as distributed with 4.7-RELEASE.

Anyway, NEVERMIND!

I just tried playing some .wav files, and the audio output on the Soyo
SY-KT333 works just fine, right out of the box, with 4.7-RELEASE.  (I
haven't tried audio input, or anything more magical that just playing
.wav files, but auto output was all I really wanted to do for now anyway.)

I guess that I should have just tried it before being silly and asking
about it here.  But like I said, the few notes I read online about sound
and the KT333 chipset seemed to suggest that it wouldn't work.  I'm very
glad to see that those reports were not correct... at least not for 4.7.

Copying over the files (assuming installed under /usr/src)

/usr/src/sys/dev/sound/pci/ich.h
/usr/src/sys/dev/sound/pci/ich.c

with the equivalents from -stable should allow audio to work on this board.
Probably the easiest way to get the latest revisions of these files is via
cvsweb:

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/src/sys/dev/sound/pci/ich.h

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/src/sys/dev/sound/pci/ich.c

Obviously you'll have to rebuild your kernel and make sure the appropriate
device entries exist.

Subject: Via VT8233a Sound support (?)



What's the current status of support (in the pcm driver?) for the Via
VT8233a Southbridge sound?

I just looked at some postings about this in Google, and it doesn't look
very encouraging.

(That's kind-of a bummer, cuz I just bought this shiny new Soyo KT333
motherboard, and I hate to have to go and buy a soundblaster for this box
when the motherboard has perfectly good sound support right there on the
motherboard.)
