RE: Missing /dev/dsp and /dev/mixer



Hotplug is purged. Although there are hotplug files that seemed to have
come with the kernel and/or udev.

I'm not sure which release notes you are referring to.

Everything has been upgraded and is working. Even the audio cards if I
create the /dev links.

Also, keep in mind that udevd will create the links if I start it
manually, which might seem to indicate that something is not executing
in the right order at boot time.

Just to make sure: Did you purge the hotplug package after the upgrade?
Did you follow the step-by-step upgrade procedure as given in the
release notes?  Is the upgrade complete?
