Have you read the FreeBSD Handbook which explains how to load the
sound driver for your system?

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/multimedia.html


Since you didn't tell us which sound card you have on your
motherboard, I did a little googleing on the motherboard and this
site:

http://www.directron.com/k8vxse.html

Says that your card is:

Audio: ADI AD1888 SoundMAx 6-channel audio CODEC, S/PDIF out interface support

And a googling of FreeBSD and AD1888 brings up PR 75860, which shows
that that card has been supported since FreeBSD 5.x by using the
snd_via8233 kernel module.

If none of this works, post a "pciconf -vl" from your system.
