Are you getting any sounds at all? Check in /dev to see if you even have a sound device. My guess is no. All sound drivers (I believe) are disabled initially. Check out /boot/defaults/loader.conf and /boot/loader.conf. Also the Handbook has a sound card section. Most PCs have a cable connected directly from the CDROM to the sound card so CDs might play even if FreeBSD is not setup to use your sound card.
