Add ukbd(4) and kbdmux(4) to your kernel config or load them as modules 
in /boot/loader.conf. At least one of the hid devices should attach to 
ukbd(4). You can see what the other one has to offer with usbhidctl(1):

# usbhidctl -f /dev/uhidX -r

This gives you the report descriptor of the device which you might want to 
post here.
