Wyatt, Yes, the controller snd0 is the older way of configuring sound cards. If you check out the FreeBSD handbook pages on the web page these are correct for how to configure it using the newer "pcm" method. Also you might want to take a look at the LINT file as it outlines a lot of the same things.
