Yes, great thanks Adam!

For the records:
As you said I have installed audio/oss and audio/esound.
I couldn't start snd_uaudio at runtime, so I put
      snd_uaudio_load="YES"
into /boot/loader.conf and rebooted.
After that everything worked fine.

On my FreeBSD 7.0 I can even see /dev/dsp and when I do a
      	# cat /dev/sndstat
I get
     	FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm: 64bit 2007061600/amd64)
  	Installed devices:
  	pcm0: <USB Audio> at ? kld snd_uaudio [GIANT] (1p:1v/1r:1v
  	channels duplex default)
          mode 1:(output) 8ch, 16/16bit, pcm, 44100,48000Hz
          mode 2:(output) 2ch, 16/16bit, pcm, 44100,48000Hz
          mode 3:(output) 4ch, 16/16bit, pcm, 44100,48000Hz
          mode 4:(output) 6ch, 16/16bit, pcm, 44100,48000Hz
          mode 5:(output) 2ch, 16/16bit, pcm, 48000Hz
          mode 1:(input) 2ch, 16/16bit, pcm, 44100,48000Hz

That's it!

Thanks again,

Uli.
