46.Cd "audio* at aria?"
47.Sh DESCRIPTION
48The
49.Nm
50driver provides support for Sierra's Aria chipset,
51which is the basis of such cards as the Prometheus Aria 16, the
52Genoa AudioBahn 16 Pro, and some Diamond Sonic Sounds (Rev A5 and
53Rev B2).
54.Pp

5715750 Hz, 22050 Hz, 31500 Hz, and 44100 Hz.
58.Pp
59Valid I/O addresses are 0x280, 0x290, 0x2A0, and 0x2B0.
60The IRQ may be set to 10, 11, or 12.
61.Pp
62The flags setting is necessary for
63the Prometheus Aria 16, as it needs to be specially
64configured at each cold boot by twiddling with the
65joystick port.
66.Sh SEE ALSO
67.Xr audio 4 ,
68.Xr isa 4
