Set ans_hda_load="YES" in /boot/defaults/loader.conf to make it work.

Do not edit /boot/defaults/loader.conf! It is called 'default' for a reason. Use /boot/loader.conf for overrides. And it's snd_hda_load, I presume.

Nothing to excuse my stupidity, sorry.
I is all as you say.

Why not add this driver to your kernel_config_file and recompile the kernel?

Compile the kernel is an easy job, and not time consuming(add the following line to your make.conf and install ccache).

NO_MODULES=true

I compile the kernel(delete some driver and add some driver and ipfw firewall), userland and ports for optimization, and compile the documentation for for reading. :e

And I think a FreeBSD user always know how to compile their kernel.
