Here's a snippet from another port that might help:
startupitem.create yes
startupitem.netchange yes
if {[getuid] == 0} {
startupitem.executable ${prefix}/sbin/asterisk -d -U asterisk -G asterisk
} else {
startupitem.executable ${prefix}/sbin/asterisk -d
}
and there is a discussion in the mailing list about this from years gone by
the might be worth reading if that doesn't happen:

Hope this helps.
