What kind of system are you using, and what kind of audio hardware does
it have?

Maybe start with something like this to check your system audio hw:

    dmesg | grep -i audio
    dmesg | grep -i speaker

I haven't done much with audio on NetBSD, but there are other commands
e.g. from The Guide: https://www.netbsd.org/docs/guide/en/chap-audio.html

    audiocfg list 

Note that you should be able to use more recent pkgsrc (e.g. 2026Q2)
with NetBSD 11 for additional tools and applications.
