still wrestling with audio on ThinkPad A20m

I'm still trying to figure out what happened to sound on this 
laptop between 4.5 and 4.6. I found a posting through Google that 
seems like it answers my question: trouble is, I don't understand 
the answer ;-)

Re: Audio stopped working on TP600E, possible ACPI casualty?</a>

In a reply to this, a poster said he had the same problem in 
-STABLE and he "took a suggestion from -mobile and hardwired it to 
isa port 0x530 irq 5 (the ISA emulation interface) and it works 
fine there..."

Here's the relevant info from pciconf -vl:

     vendor   = 'Cirrus Logic'
     device   = 'Crystal CS4614/22/24 SoundFusion PCI Audio 
Accelerator'
     class    = multimedia
     subclass = audio

from dmesg.boot:
pcm0: <CS461x PCM Audio> on csa0
device_probe_and_attach: pcm0 attach returned 6

from /dev/sndstat:
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm)
Installed devices:

from dmesg:
csa: card is Thinkpad 600X/A20/T20
pcm0: <CS461x PCM Audio> on csa0


I don't know what the "device_probe_and_attach: pcm0 attach 
returned 6" means and how I can use that in any way.

Basic is a high level languish.
APL is a high level anguish.
