Description ak03 2001-10-16 19:30:00 UTC 
	snd_driver uses MODULE_DEPEND(name, ....) to load specific cards
	drivers. Previously, the 'name' above was treated as a name of
	the kernel module binary, i.e system would try to load name.ko
	in the above case. This has changed with kldxref and corresponding
	kernel module linker changes. Linker currently looks for the name, 
	specified in the DRIVER_MODULE() macro instead.

	Several sound drivers currently have driver name which differs
	from the module filename, and since snd_driver tries to
	depend on them using their filenames, it is unable to load
	and fails with an 'unavailable dependency' error.

	The patch below simply restores one-to-one mapping 
	between driver name and its module name. This way 
	the same code will work as expected on both -CURRENT and
	-STABLE.

How-To-Repeat: 	kldload snd_driver.ko should suffice.
