Is my page on fixing ACPI of any help:

http://bis.midco.net/pmes/acpi.html

One hint from there is to provide a verbose dmesg.

Have you asked the guys concentrating on ACPI--John Baldwin and Nate 
Lawson are the ones I know of--if they can help?  There's also the 
acpi-jp at jp.FreeBSD.org mailing list.
