For hotpluggable devices, the rules (with slightly different format) should go in devfs.rules. The manual pages I wrote for devfs.conf and devfs.rules were committed to CURRENT a couple of weeks ago. I don't know if and when they will appear in 5-STABLE. But you can find them on my FreeBSD webpage: http://www.xs4all.nl/~rsmith/freebsd/ This page has some more info about setting this up.
