I don't know anything about the OPTi930 chipset, but my experience in the past with notebooks and freebsd has taught me that sometimes you can jury rig it to work if it will emulate an sound blaster, at least this has worked for me with thinkpads with the mysterious mwave deal. Try getting the fbsdboot.exe dos executable(assuming you have freebsd setup to dual boot with a dos partition), then boot into dos as normal and try and setup the drivers such that they are in some sort of sb emulation mode(for games and whatnot), then boot into freebsd via the fbsdboot.exe program and use the sound blaster drivers, I used voxware way back when, but that was before the pcm0 driver came about. I've had pretty good success doing this with various sound chipsets on laptops, but it does force you to boot into dos, then to bsd every time you turn the thing on, which is revolting, but better than no sound at all I suppose. Good luck...
