I have solved this problem, thanks to the webplayer board at http://www.linux-hacker.net/cgi-bin/UltraBoard/UltraBoard.pl?Action=ShowBoard&Board=vwgeneral&Idle=&Sort=&Order=&Session= the reason audio out doesn't work is that by default the line is not muted. It must be muted to play audio. Using FreeBSD, the audio may be muted by mixer line 0:0 You can include the mixer in your PicoBSD setup, if you're using PicoBSD. I am now able to play mpeg audio files and wav files via the speakers and headphones on my webplayer.
