Hi,
Yes that seems to have solved the problem. Incidentally, would you know what
the disadvantage of having acpi disabled like that is?

Thanks,

Joe

Disabling ACPI seems to solve problems for a lot of people who use
FreeBSD/amd64. 

Add hint.acpi.0.disabled="1" to boot/device.hints to see if it works in
your case.
