To get better diagnostics:
1) try to put hint.hdac.0.disabled="1" into your /boot/device.hints,
to disabled hdac device, then reboot and see if that helps
hdac is under a cloud, since it is included in GENERIC starting from 9.0.
2) boot kernel in verbose mode
(boot_verbose="YES" in /boot/loader.conf or simply boot -v)
