Mar 30 19:20:13 moonbow kernel: isapnp: No Plug & Play device found - nor does the soundcard driver: Mar 30 19:20:18 moonbow kernel: ALSA card-ad1816a.c:348: no AD1816A based soundcards found. i've tried to make some sense of the output of pnpdump(1) and added an entry to snd_ad1816a_pnpids[], but it hasn't helped. rj
