Sound Card Issues

I've recently installed FreeBSD 5.1 release, and am having great difficulty
getting my Soundblaster Audigy to work. I have attempted to enable both the
pcm and sbc devices in my kernel configuration file, but to no avail. dmesg
| grep pcm yields nothing. Does anyone know what I can do to enable support
for my sound card? Does it not emulate earlier versions of Soundblaster
cards?
My current kernel configuration file is attached.
Thanks in advance,
Jason A Crome
