I also have this sound card and have been using it successfully for some time 
now.  You need to do the following:

grog# cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/
grog# ee GENERIC

scroll all the way to the bottom and add this line:

device	pcm

hit ESC, A, A,

type

grog# config GENERIC
grog# cd ../compile/GENERIC
grog# make dep; make; make install; shutdown -r now

when it's all done, it will reboot the system and you should have sound!
