does anyone have a link where a web page has been created

I found on BSDForums.org an explanation which describes
first using kldload to try to determine what driver you
need, and then it speaks a bit about compiling directly into
the kernel, but neither example show how to actually
play a sound --any sound-- as a test to see if it works.
A CLI example would be very handy.
Thanks!

The FreeBSD handbook has a chapter on sound configuration and testing.
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/sound-setup.html
Look at section 7.2.2. You can cat a file into /dev/dsp to test that it
is working.
If you want to play an actual mp3 file or something, check out mplayer
or amp, both are in ports and are CLI apps.
