FreeBSD Sound Not Working [Newb]

I have just started using FreeBSD 10, and I am still getting acquainted with the system. For some reason, the sound drivers appears to load but I can't get output from the speakers.


Code: 
% cat /dev/sndstat 
Installed devices:
pcm0: <Intel (0x2807) (HDMI/DP 8ch)> (play) default
pcm1: <Conexant (0x5113) (Analog)> (play/rec)
pcm2: <Conexant (0x5113) (Front Analog Headphones)> (play)

Code: 
% sysctl hw.snd                       
hw.snd.report_soft_formats: 1
hw.snd.report_soft_matrix: 1
hw.snd.latency: 5
hw.snd.latency_profile: 1
hw.snd.vpc_autoreset: 1
hw.snd.vpc_0db: 45
hw.snd.vpc_reset: 0
hw.snd.compat_linux_mmap: 0
hw.snd.feeder_eq_presets: PEQ:16000,0.2500,62,0.2500:-9,9,1.0:44100,48000,88200,96000,176400,192000

hw.snd.default_auto: 0
hw.snd.version: 2009061500/amd64
hw.snd.default_unit: 0
hw.snd.maxautovchans: 16


Code: 
% cat /dev/random > /dev/dsp

Any help is appreciated. Not sure what else to do.
 
Without a default unit selected, 0 is used. That is the HDMI output on the Intel video.

To choose the motherboard analog audio, set unit 1 as the default:
# sysctl hw.snd.default_unit=1

Set that in /boot/loader.conf to make it come up that way:
Code: 
hw.snd.default_unit=1
 
Thanks, But I definetly tried that previously as well as just now.

Code: 
# sysctl hw.snd.default_unit=1
hw.snd.default_unit: 0 -> 1

Code: 
% cat /dev/random > /dev/dsp
 
Code: 
% cat /dev/sndstat
Installed devices:
pcm0: <Intel (0x2807) (HDMI/DP 8ch)> (play)
pcm1: <Conexant (0x5113) (Analog)> (play/rec)
pcm2: <Conexant (0x5113) (Front Analog Headphones)> (play) default

Code: 
% mixer 
Mixer vol      is currently set to  86:86
Mixer pcm      is currently set to 100:100
 
I was trying different settings

Code: 
#  cat /dev/sndstat
Installed devices:
pcm0: <Intel (0x2807) (HDMI/DP 8ch)> (play)
pcm1: <Conexant (0x5113) (Analog)> (play/rec) default
pcm2: <Conexant (0x5113) (Front Analog Headphones)> (play)
 
Code: 
% mixer
Mixer vol      is currently set to 100:100
Mixer pcm      is currently set to 100:100
Mixer speaker  is currently set to 100:100
Mixer rec      is currently set to   0:0
Mixer monitor  is currently set to  56:56
