   My PAS Card worked great under the SNAP version, but now plays tremendous

   What happened?

We went to a fairly radical new set of sound driver changes and
evidently we broke the PAS.  Would you mind working with the nice
folks on hackers@freebsd.org in diagnosing this?  There will be a
little more teething trouble as we go through this (especially when we
switch to Voxware 3.0, which will happen soon) but what we end up with
should be, on the balance, MUCH nicer than what we had before in terms
of ease-of-configuration and architectural cleanlines.  If folks
experiencing problems like this are willing to work with the
developers on the hackers mailing list, I'm sure we can solve them
quickly.  In some cases, it just comes down to even *knowing*
that something doesn't work!
