Workaround according to https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/bose-companion-5-usb-working.36810/
sudo sysctl hw.usb.uaudio.default_channels=6
hw.usb.uaudio.default_channels: 0 -> 6
But still:
% cat /dev/sndstat
cat: /dev/sndstat:: No such file or directory

After replugging:
% cat /dev/sndstat
Installed devices:
pcm0: <Intel Broadwell (HDMI/DP 8ch)> (play)
pcm1: <Realtek ALC269 (Front Analog Headphones)> (play)
pcm2: <USB audio> (play) default
No devices installed from userspace.
Now it can be selected in DSBMixer, and the test sound can be played in DSBMixer. System sounds work. So does sound from Falkon.
But it is too fiddly. Should work automatically.
