Video and Sound on FreeBSD 15/Stable

Clean install of the subject OS within VMware.  Had an issue with the
display not going beyond 1280x768 but fixed it with the following config
file:
/usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-monitor.conf:

Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Card0"
SubSection "Display"
Modes "1600x900"
EndSubSection
End Section

Now there is no audio, even though it is enabled in the VM, as well as this
entry in the /boot/loader.conf file: snd_driver_load="YES"

Any ideas on where to go from here are much appreciated.
