I'm having a unique (?) problem on a machine running 7.2 STABLE.

It looks like /dev/speaker decided to go away, and yet ^G still
produces a beep, and the hardware's there.

Any advice on how to replace a missing device node under devfs / devd?
 I understand mknod is deprecated now, and I'm having trouble
following how to recreate the device node.

I've confirmed that the speaker.ko module is loaded (via kldstat).  I
rebuilt the kernel and world recently.  Any ideas?

Thanks kindly,
Scott
