Problems with the maestro3 OSS driver on 2.6.0-test5-bk10

Mr. Brown,
I just recently got 2.6.0-test5-bk10 working on my Gateway 600S laptop, which
has an ESS Allegro Maestro3 chip. Right now I'm using the maestro3 OSS driver
under 2.4.22-ac2 without problems, but when I boot to 2.6.0-test5-bk10 and try
to use the driver (i.e. open /dev/dsp using the Mozilla Shockwave plugin), I
get the following Oopses:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000188
printing eip:

The driver detects my chip like this (the driver itself is compiled as a
module):
maestro3: version 1.23 built at 18:55:27 Sep 23 2003
maestro3: Configuring ESS Allegro found at IO 0x5000 IRQ 5
maestro3: subvendor id: 0x0600107b
ac97_codec: AC97 Audio codec, id: 0x4583:0x8308 (ESS Allegro ES1988)
And under 2.6, lspci -vv says this:
02:03.0 Multimedia audio controller: ESS Technology ES1988 Allegro-1 (rev 12)

Latency: 64 (500ns min, 6000ns max)
Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 5
Region 0: I/O ports at 5000 [size=256]
Capabilities: [c0] Power Management version 2

Status: D0 PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME-
Should I try the ALSA drivers next? Or is this a bug fixed elsewhere? (i.e.
2.6.0-test5-mm4)
TIA
