You normally get that when another application is using the soundcard,
or if there is no support for your soundcard in the kernel.

look at the 'dmesg' command and look for something like this in it:

eap0 at pci1 dev 12 function 0 "Ensoniq AudioPCI97" rev 0x07: irq 5
ac97: codec id 0x83847608 (SigmaTel STAC9708)
ac97: codec features 18 bit DAC, 18 bit ADC, Rockwell 3D
audio0 at eap0

That's my sound card. If you don't see anything like that,
odds are your soundcard is either not supported or that your
kernel just does not have support for it compiled it,
Check http://www.openbsd.org/i386.html to see if it's supported,
and check the FAQ for instructions on how to compile the kernel.
