Just note that you don't have to send your whole KERNEL, just any entries dealing with sound.
Also, what version is it?

you might want to add the "conflicts" entries beside you device entries.
look at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig-config.html

also, check the mailing list archives to see what others have done.

if this is a 3.x version, check the errata about the "kernel.config".
it should be named kernel.conf...look at http://www.freebsd.org/releases/3.1R/errata.html

the previous piece fixed my sound problems.

good luck!
