This should work with any compatible PCI soundcard or ISA soundcard (as long
as plug-in-play OS is turned on in BIOS for ISA).

Enter "kldload snd"
This will load all available sound modules and if it finds your soundcard
you should see something like this:

 installed MI handler for int 5
 pcm0: <SB16 DSP 4.16 (ViBRA16X)> on sbc0

To have the module autoload during boot just put snd_xxx_load="yes" into
your /boot/loader.conf file where xxx is the specific sound module you will
need for your hardware. For my soundblaster16 i used snd_sb16_load="yes"
