Nice work, thanks. One comment on module loading though, there's an easy
way to configure sound with the help of /etc/conf.modules, put these lines
in there:

alias sound dmasound_awacs
#options dmasound_core <parameters>

Uncommenting the 2nd line enables passing parameters to dmasound_core. With
these settings, sound should be autoprobed on bootup of your machine.

Franz.
