SND_ES137X(4)		     Kernel Interfaces Manual		   SND_ES137X(4)

NAME
     snd_es137x -- Ensoniq AudioPCI ES137x bridge device driver

SYNOPSIS
     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your
     kernel configuration file:

	   device sound
	   device snd_es137x

     Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the
     following line in loader.conf(5):

	   snd_es137x_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION
     The  snd_es137x  bridge  driver allows the generic audio driver sound(4) to
     attach to the Ensoniq 137x audio cards.

   Runtime Configuration
     The following sysctl(8) variables are available in addition to those avail-
     able to all sound(4) devices:

	   hw.snd.pcm%d.latency_timer  Controls the PCI latency  timer	setting.
				       Increasing  this  value	will  solve most
				       popping and crackling issues  (especially
				       on VIA motherboards).

	   hw.snd.pcm%d.spdif_enabled  Enables	S/PDIF	output	on  the  primary
				       playback channel.  This	sysctl(8)  vari-
				       able  is  available only if the device is
				       known to support S/PDIF output.

	   dev.pcm.%d.polling	       Experimental polling mode, where the dri-
				       ver operates by querying the device state
				       on each tick using  callout(9).	 Polling
				       is disabled by default.	Do not enable it
				       unless  you  are  facing  weird interrupt
				       problems or if the device cannot generate
				       interrupts at all.
