>From the FreeBSD Handbook, 7.2 Setting Up the Sound Card:

"The first thing to do is adding the generic audio driver sound(4) 
 to the kernel, for that you will need to add the following line to 
 the kernel configuration file:

   device sound

[snip]

 Then we have to add the support for our sound card."


Which is where 'device snd_es137x' comes in, so yes, you
do still need to add that line to your kernel conf _if_ you want
sound support built in to the kernel.  If not, you can add the
appropriate line to /boot/loader.conf to load the module at
boot time.
