        In a similar vein, if the PC has a sound card and inbuilt speaker, could it be made to play a music file?

          It could, but we do not include sound drivers or kernel modules for sound.

            Right, thanks.

            How hard would it be to add said modules/drivers?

              You'd just need to copy the sound modules over from a stock freebsd install and load them. If you know your way around FreeBSD, it wouldn't be terribly hard. If you don't, it might be a little difficult to get it all straight.

                  For the pauses in Jingle Bells, would it be possible to just insert a note (or notes) with a frequency outside the range of the PC beep speaker, i.e. 1 or 999999?

                    I will try that, thanks.

                          This is awsome!  ;D
                          In my opinion (as someone living in a supposedly Christian country!) it should be part of pfsense. If you reboot your box on Christmas day it should play jinglebells.  :D
                          That opens up the possibility of other date related start up themes…....
