What version of FreeBSD?  AFAIU, FreeBSD only supports one console 
keyboard, so if you plug in ukbd1 and make it the console, the DRAC on 
ukbd0 shouldn't work.  I'm sure I tried this and that it didn't work, 
but I'd be happy to be wrong.  Are you sure that both your DRAC and USB 
work at the same time?
