I need a little help to get the sound to work on my laptop.

The sound card is "IDT HD Audio codec" in Windows Vista.

My loader.conf has the following:
sound_load="YES"
snd_hda_load="YES"

I think the driver is loaded

cat /dev/sndstat
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm: 64bit 2007061600/amd64)
Installed devices:
pcm0: <Intel 82801I High Definition Audio Controller> at memory 
0xf6fdc000 irq 21 kld snd_hda [20080420_0052] [MPSAFE] (1p:1v/1r:1v 
channels duplex default)

and

mixer
Mixer vol      is currently set to  75:75
Mixer pcm      is currently set to  75:75
Mixer speaker  is currently set to  75:75
Mixer mic      is currently set to   0:0
Mixer rec      is currently set to   0:0
Recording source: mic

But I have no output what so ever!

I have tried the volume control on the machine, and also a headset 
without success.

I need a hint on where to go now.

Thanks
/Leslie
