Hello,

I am trying to get sound working in FreeBSD. I read 9th chapter of FreeBSD handbook(https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/multimedia/). I have succesfully configured the sound card, it shows in dmesg | grep pcm and also in cat /dev/sndstat. however when I try to use beep command to test the speaker, it doesn't work ( I can't hear anything from the sound card).

Yes, I tried doing that but it didn't work. It's something related to my sound card. FreeBSD detects my sound card but it couldn't play sound for some reason.
