Thank you for suggestion. I've installed 7.1-BETA and mixer is working, after using the same steps with loading snd_hda, although "<HDA Codec: Realtek (Unknown)>" is still unchanged. Probably it's not codec after all, but KDE/PCBSD specific weirdness, since OS version difference is less than a month. There's also only one /dev/mixer0 for a change.
