It looks like your machine actually now has the kernel configured to look
for these things. (and also that it has found your joystick port) So, what
maybe the problem is that you don't have your card configured right. You may
want to check your soundblaster card settings (booting you machine windows
may get you to use the diags that SB provides.). You can then boot into
freebsd with a -c option in your boot prompt. This takes you to a config
manager.. and you can make changes to the sb entries. If you MAKEDEV sb, It
will actually MAKEDEV snd. I haven't looked at the sources, but I think sb
withh talk to you though snd0 (based on the following MAKEDEV statements).
# Special purpose devices:
# snd* various sound cards (generic entries)
# sb A sound blaster card (any type)
sb)
sh /dev/MAKEDEV snd0
