Cannot start asterisk on FreeBSD 6.0

Can anyone help me with the following problem? I cannot start asterisk under FreeBSD 6.0 and keep getting the following error message:

From what I understand, chan_oss is a soundcard driver

Have you got a soundcard installed and configured in your setup?

If not, I would suggest adding:

noload=chan_oss.so

to modules.conf
