To complete the picture:

/dev/sndstat:
	FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm)
	Installed devices:
	pcm0: <Intel ICH5 (82801EB)> at io 0xfebff800, 0xfebff400 irq 17 bufsz 16384 
	kld snd_ich (1p/1r/0v channels duplex default)
			  ^^^^

dmesg:
	pcm0: <Intel ICH5 (82801EB)> port 0xee80-0xeebf,0xe800-0xe8ff mem 
	0xfebff400-0xfebff4ff,0xfebff800-0xfebff9ff irq 17 at device 31.5 on pci0
	pcm0: [GIANT-LOCKED]
	pcm0: <Analog Devices AD1985 AC97 Codec>

And the simplest test I could come up with:
	cat /dev/random > /dev/audio0.0 
just give the awefull white noise one would expect. Use with care!
