Dear all,
Following advice from thread(s) :

root@grullahighschool:~ # sysctl hw.snd.default_unit=0
hw.snd.default_unit: 1 - 0
Got the sound working like it was.
How do I get it to stick across reboots?
Which would be the preferred way?
ie,
use file
root@grullahighschool:~ # cat /etc/sysctl.conf
# $FreeBSD: release/8.4.0/etc/sysctl.conf 112200 2003-03-13 18:43:50Z mux $
#
# This file is read when going to multi-user and its contents piped thru
# ``sysctl'' to adjust kernel values. ``man 5 sysctl.conf'' for details.
#
# Uncomment this to prevent users from seeing information about processes that
# are being run under another UID.
#security.bsd.see_other_uids=0
vfs.usermount=1
hw.snd.vpc_autoreset=0
kern.module_path=/boot/kernel;/boot/modules;/usr/local/modules
You have new mail.

or place in /boot/loader.conf the line:
hw.snd.default_unit=0
?
Thanks for helping figure things out. I had working sound but maybe
updating to 8.4-RELEASE changed things around?
Best Regards,
Antonio

Dear folks,
I have a machine recently updated to 8.4-RELEASE-p3 and ports tree
updated from 05/27 to Friday of last week. I had sound, but now have
lost sound. I had the usual snd_hda_ in /boot/loader.conf
