I've installed FreeBSD last week and since then, I'm trying to use my
SoundBlaster Pro.

/dev/audio and /dev/dsp are working fine but when I try to use the mixer,
I have an error message like : "/dev/mixer : Illegal operation" and then
/dev/mixer is deleted. I have to MAKEDEV to recreate it.

Should I to recompile my kernel with specials options ?
Am I doing something wrong ?

Thanks in advance.
