Hey! I can't get my microphone working. My system is a FreeBSD 5.1-REL. First of - i get some info about my soundcard: # [harry]:[~]$ cat /dev/sndstat # FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) # Installed devices: # pcm0: <SiS 7012> at io 0xd400, 0xd800 irq 10 bufsz 16384 (1p/1r/4v channels duplex default) And my vhans: # [harry]:[~]$ sysctl -a | grep vchan # hw.snd.maxautovchans: 4 # hw.snd.pcm0.vchans: 4 My record source: # [harry]:[~]$ mixer recsrc # Recording source: mic And i'd make sure to turn up for 'rec' and 'mic': # [harry]:[~]$ mixer mic 100 rec 100 # Setting the mixer mic from 0:0 to 100:100. # Setting the mixer rec from 0:0 to 100:100. Now everything should be fine. So i try to record something: # [harry]:[~]$ cp /dev/audio test.au # ^C And examines the file: # [harry]:[~]$ du -h test.au # 128K test.au Fine. Then i try to play it: # [harry]:[~]$ cp test.au /dev/audio It only takes a few seconds before it ends. And nothing comes out of my speaker. And it takes way shorter to run it than to record it. I also tried just to cat directly to the speaker: # [harry]:[~]$ cat /dev/dsp > /dev/dsp No luck. What do i do wrong? How do i get it working?
