I am having trouble getting my soundcard to work in 5.1 stable.  It didn't 
automatically detect the Soundblaster Live card so I added it to the kernel 
with kldload snd_emu10k1.ko and rebooted.  It then shows up under pcm0 like 
this

pcm0: Creative EMU10K1 port 0xd400-0xd41f irq 11 at device 1.0 on pci2
pcm0: Cirrus Logic CS4297A AC97 Codec
Looking through usenet, it seems I should run MAKEDEV snd0 or something in 
/dev to create the mixer and stuff.  However, MAKEDEV has been removed from 
5.1.

Help!

Have you tried the official instructions on 
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/sound-setup.html  
?
You'll see that FreeBSD 5.0 and later do not need to use MAKEDEV, 
because devfs(5) automatically creates device nodes.

I don't know if this helps you much further, but now you know you don't 
have to worry about MAKEDEV.
