did you read the handbook ?

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x14040.html

did you try the new pcm driver ?

two solutions :

echo device pcm >> /sys/i386/conf/YOURKERNEL
echo device sbc >> /sys/i386/conf/YOURKERNEL
etc.

or

kldload pcm

or even better

kldload sb16

download the -current sources then read /usr/src/UPDATING.
