To configure an SB, you have to specify any non-default settings via
options:

controller	snd0
options		CONFIGURE_SOUNDCARD
options		"SBC_BASE=0x220"
options		"SBC_IRQ=5"
options		"SBC_DMA=1"
options		"SB16_DMA=7"
options		"SB16MIDI_BASE=0x300"
device sb0      at isa? port 0x220 conflicts irq 5 conflicts drq 1 vector sbintr
device sbxvi0   at isa? port 0x220 conflicts irq 5 conflicts drq 7 vector sbintr
device sbmidi0  at isa? port 0x300
device		joy0	at isa? port "IO_GAME"

Fun, eh ?
