Using Gnome desktop, trying to play various mp3 files and video files
results in the mp3 player, video player running, but not sound
produced on either the speaker outputs or headphone.
Here is mixer output:
Mixer vol is currently set to 75:75
Mixer pcm is currently set to 75:75
Mixer speaker is currently set to 75:75
Mixer line is currently set to 75:75
Mixer mic is currently set to 0:0

I'm not new to Freebsd, but this is the first time I've tried to get
sound working on it. Any help would be very appreciated.
Thanks,
Scott
I had a similar problem with 8.1 (although it turned out not to be
version specific) on a 64 bit Gateway desktop computer. It was a bit of
a pain to determine what the correct device .ko that had to be loaded to
make the sound work. I use kde4, but the player utilities, when I
loaded any audio file (including desktop sound-effects) all said they
were running but the speakers remained mute. mixer output was exactly
as your's shown above.
I finally kldload(ed) snd_* and went through the list of the loaded
modules until I eliminated useless loaded modules and found the one that
actually let the sound files play. It was a pain in the butt, but it
worked.
What does kldstat say for your .ko loaded sound files?
