FYI

I look but couldn't see how this was to be achieved. Eventually I poked around and found my answer here it is:

FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE

SoundBlaster AWE 64

Added the following to the kernel config file

/sys/i386/conf/MY-KERN

# Soundcard
device pcm
device sbc   

build the kernel.

reboot the machine with the new kernel.

cd /dev/

./MAKEDEV pcaudio
./MAKEDEV snd0

The RealAudio 7 player worked out of the box.
