Sorry for the late response, my mail providers was causing me issues when I was trying to send any email. So I had to setup couple my own email address and what not in order to send this mail.
I also have some similar (maybe even identical) issue, and I have reported it. You can find it on here: https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-bugs&m=160132842400406&w=2 I managed to get it working with zzz(8). Could you please try to use zzz(8). Also make sure to do `sh /etc/netstart`, sometimes some interfaces blocks the audio after zzz(8) until you use /etc/netstart. Maybe this is because I use xidle(1) and xlock(1), I'm not quite sure. Also, I think you can temporarily fix it with an external USB audio card. I tried a cheap one, it was "working" (that is, it wasn't getting broken when you tweak the audio volume or something), but it was also making my headset beep in the background silently but consistently, and you know, it was very, very annoying.
