I think you probably just need to set hw.snd.default_unit. e.g. I have: $ dmesg |grep pcm pcm0: <HDA NVidia (Unknown) PCM #0 DisplayPort> at cad 0 nid 1 on hdac0 pcm1: <HDA NVidia (Unknown) PCM #0 DisplayPort> at cad 1 nid 1 on hdac0 pcm2: <HDA NVidia (Unknown) PCM #0 DisplayPort> at cad 2 nid 1 on hdac0 pcm3: <HDA NVidia (Unknown) PCM #0 DisplayPort> at cad 3 nid 1 on hdac0 pcm4: <HDA VIA VT1708S_0 PCM #0 Analog> at cad 0 nid 1 on hdac1 pcm5: <HDA VIA VT1708S_0 PCM #1 Digital> at cad 0 nid 1 on hdac1 pcm6: <HDA VIA VT1708S_0 PCM #2 Digital> at cad 0 nid 1 on hdac1 and in /etc/sysctl.conf I have hw.snd.default_unit=4 to select the analogue output from the motherboard rather than (I presume) the HDMI output from the graphics card.
