 Here is my dmesg output and sndstat:

 Any suggestions on what to try next ?

I don't think this is a problem with the card or the volume.  I see
this a lot on FreeBSD, since 4.8.  Matter of fact, I just tried playing
a wmv file with mplayer, and got no sound.  It was working fine
before.

Every once in awhile my sound just disappears.  Now, even a simple
waveplay command acts like it's doing its job, but nothing comes out.
Catting a .au file directly to the /dev/audio0.* devices just
announces that the device is busy.

The only thing that brings the sound back is a reboot, which
isn't an option I really like.

The card on this particular machine is an onboard Intel 5.1 sound
chip.  How the heck am I supposed to reset these devices?  There's
nothing in the handbook or FAQ that I could find.

I had a similar issue.  For me it was that the sound
volumes were set to 0.  Type the command mixer and if
it gives you zeros for the settings then that is what
is going on.

I used the mixer command to set these.  It modified my
config files for me and works fine now.

Hope this helps.
