I imagine it'd be much the same on rpi3b+ FreeBSD generic 13.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 13.1-RELEASE #0 n250148-fc952ac2212-dirty: Fri May 13 06:42:16 UTC 2022 generic kernel has this line added device vchiq # onboard sound freebsd@generic:~ % sysctl -a | grep vchiq dev.pcm.0.%parent: vchiq0 dev.vchiq.0.arm_log: 4 dev.vchiq.0.log: 4 dev.vchiq.0.%parent: simplebus0 dev.vchiq.0.%pnpinfo: name=mailbox@7e00b840 compat=brcm,bcm2836-vchiq dev.vchiq.0.%location: dev.vchiq.0.%driver: vchiq dev.vchiq.0.%desc: BCM2835 VCHIQ dev.vchiq.%parent: the job of this rpi2b+ is internet radio. There's a single speaker attached to the sound jack on the board. It uses mpv to play streams. Seems to work well.
