I was poking around in OpenSolaris under VMware Fusion and I felt like getting 
the sound to work. OpenSolaris doesn't seem to come with an audioens driver and 
VMware Fusion creates an AudioPCI audio device. To hack around this, I stole a 
driver from a Solaris 10 U5 host:

cd / ; tar cvf /var/tmp/audioens.tar kernel/drv/audioens 
kernel/drv/audioens.conf kernel/drv/amd64/audioens

Copy /var/tmp/audioens.tar to your OpenSolaris box. I stored my tarball in ~/. 
Then untar it.

cd / ; pfexec tar xvf ~/audioens.tar

Now add the driver to /etc/driver_aliases.

pfexec add_drv -i '"pci1274,1371"' audioens

Log out and back in. The audio device should now be activated. I'm sure what 
I've done isn't endorsed, nor recommended so YMMV, but it seems to work at 
least.
