Anthony,

Audigy is not supported in -CURRENT kernel, but there are some patches
to make it work under FreeBSD. I know about five of them: 
1)
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=664373+686499+/usr/local/www
/db/text/2003/freebsd-hackers/20030216.freebsd-hackers+raw old patch by
Orlando Bassotto
2) http://mad.ieo-research.it/ also by Orlando 
3)
http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=2034341+0+archive/2003/free
bsd-current/20030608.freebsd-current+raw mail from David O'Brien with
patches he use. 
4) http://chibis.persons.gfk.ru/audigy/ mine
5) http://chibis.persons.gfk.ru/audigy/alexander/audigy_pack.tgz old
patches for 4.x and early 5.0 kernels by Alexander Kurilovich

It only knows about PCI IDs. In-kernel driver cannot initialize and
control Audigy cards.
