Why doesn't the FreeBSD generic kernel config file (from -current) have
some sort of a SoundBlaster device entry?

The FAQ says SB's are supported.  I just can't believe that support
would be compiled in unconditionally. I'd like to figure this out
before I go to all the immense hassle of upgrading to get the SB
support. Thanks in advance for your input. email is preferred.
