thinkpad and loadable sound modules?

I seem to recall this came up recently, but I can't find it.

I have a Thinkpad 600E. the sound works fine if I compile the driver in
statically with

device pcm
options PNPBIOS

however, if I comment those out, and instead put either

snd_csa_load="YES"

or just

snd_pcm_load="YES"

into /boot/loader.conf, it doesn't work ("/dev/dsp: Device not
configured"). this is specific to my Thinkpad--I had this same hard drive
in a Dell Inspiron 8000, and the sound on that worked with the
snd_maestro3 module.

has anyone else experienced this? it's a strange wrinkle, and the system
works well with the static driver, but I'm curious why the module doesn't
work.

cheers,
chris
