Next time, actually read the links you post.  :)
Quote: To use your sound device, you will need to load the proper
device driver. This may be accomplished in one of two ways. The
easiest way is to simply load a kernel module for your sound card with
kldload(8). Alternatively, you may statically compile in support for
your sound card in your kernel. The sections below provide the
information you need to add support for your hardware in this manner.
For more information about recompiling your kernel, please see Chapter
9.

Note that the first method mentioned is to use kernel modules.  :D
