You should see a message on the console when the ltmdm driver attaches
to the modem.
If you don't get that, it didn't attach. Usual reason is that it's not a
Lucent (or it doesn't recognise the model).

Looks to me like you don't have a Lucent Winmodem.
Seems like Intel (or IBM) substituted an AC'97 modem for you instead. Nice.
AFAIK, that won't work - certainly not with 'ltmdm'...
Here's the relevant section of 'pciconf' on a genuine IBM mini-PCI combo card fitted as an after-market modification to my HP (they cost ~$25 on eBay and take ~90 seconds to fit):
fxp0@pci0:11:0: class=0x020000 card=0x22058086 chip=0x12298086 rev=0x0c hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Intel Corporation'
device = '82557/8/9 EtherExpress PRO/100(B) Ethernet Adapter'
class = network
subclass = ethernet
ltmdm0@pci0:11:1: class=0x070000 card=0x22058086 chip=0x045c11c1 rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Lucent/Agere Systems (Was: AT&T MicroElectronics)'
device = 'LT WinModem'
class = simple comms
subclass = UART
HTH.
BTW, modulo the lack of train tones from the modem, which is a little disconcerting the first few times (and would sometimes be useful when having difficulty getting a connection), the Lucent works like a champ.
Cheers,
