Hello,
I am trying to get sound working in FreeBSD. I read 9th chapter of FreeBSD handbook(https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/multimedia/). I have succesfully configured the sound card, it shows in dmesg | grep pcm
and also in cat /dev/sndstat
. however when I try to use beep command to test the speaker, it doesn’t work ( I can’t hear anything from the sound card).

Yes, I tried doing that but it didn’t work. It’s something related to my sound card. FreeBSD detects my sound card but it couldn’t play sound for some reason.

Did you put yourself in the group operator?
no, but even when I did put my user into operator group it still doesn’t work.
mixer
command says the volume is 71%.I think something weird is going on since my sound card isn’t listed of the website but the kernel detects my sound card.

Realtek ALC255 is the sound card which isn’t that new. It also gets detected by kernel which I can see in
dmesg
