I confirm your setup. I have also a awe64 pnp and work fine
with your setup.
As it seems that a lot of people has some problems with it, I am very
happy that someone else can use his sb64.
Just an other point : if you have compiled your kernel with
"kernel module auto-load" , you do not need the modprobe sb, but
you still need the insmod awe_wave.
If there is someone reading this message and who can not make his
sb awe64 sound card working, feel free to ask me ( or zentara ;-) ):
your dound blaster must work ( and for free, do not pay for other
drivers). It took aproximately 30 minutes to make mine working ....
