Thanks for your answers. Yes, I do have the
/boot/loader.conf
speaker_load="YES"

That's what troubles me, I'm used to use Yell so I'm certain that my 
config is ok. One thing I've been made aware of is that a laptop 
computer maybe do not have a "speaker". Only a sound card will produce 
sound in the speakers. Any comments on that?
