When you select them, take a FreeBSD ISO disk (maybe Freesbie?)
with you and see if it works. Make sure you check the sound drivers
to work!

And of course don't forget to check at home first how to check all
these things, nothing is more annoying than not being able to find
the right application in the shop.
