Oops, sorry about that, I should have included that info:

/boot/loader.conf had 
   # Load sound driver
   snd_maestro3_load="YES"

I tried putting 
   snd_ich_load="YES"
into loader.conf, that was not the issue:
   cat /dev/sndstat 
   FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm)
   Installed devices:
and several
   /dev/dsp: Device not configured
messages when I try to use it.  So snd_maestro3_load is likely correct.
