 cat /dev/sndstat gives
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) May 16 2000 12:36:24
Installed devices:
pcm1: (SB DSP 4.13) at io 0x220 irq 5 drq 1;5 (1p/1r channels duplex)

dmesg shows:
sbc0: (Creative ViBRA 16) at port 0x220-0x22f, 0x330-0x331, 0x388-0x38b irq 5 drq 1,5 on isa0
sbc0: setting card to irq 5, drq 1,5
pcm1: (SBC DPS 4.13) on sbc0

Hmmm pcm1?
