Generally, the sound systems that tend to be on mainboards are AC97 codecs that reside somewhere in your chipset. For several boards I own, recompiling the kernel with device pcm has made the sound chip work. I don't know exactly any details about how Gigabyte has implemented the sound stuff on their board, but recompiling the kernel with the above line in it is worth a try. For more on compiling the kernel, have a look at our fine handbook at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook, or /usr/share/doc/handbook on your own system, assuming the documentation has been installed.
