Running most recent FreeBSD 8.1-STABLE on a P45/ICH10 based ASUS motherboard. There is no sound. dmesg output reports two HDA devices, one located on a Radeon HD4830 graphics board and one located on the ICH10 chipset. Setting hw.snd.default_unit=1 in /etc/sysctl.conf or manually does not solve the problem. 'cat /dev/sndstat' reports this: FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm: 64bit 2009061500/amd64) Installed devices: pcm0: <HDA ATI R6xx HDMI PCM #0 HDMI> (play) pcm1: <HDA Analog Devices AD1988B PCM #0 Analog> (play/rec) default pcm2: <HDA Analog Devices AD1988B PCM #1 Analog> (play) pcm3: <HDA Analog Devices AD1988B PCM #2 Digital> (play) (dmesg output: hdac0: <ATI RV770 High Definition Audio Controller> mem 0xfe7fc000-0xfe7fffff irq 17 at device 0.1 on pci1 hdac0: HDA Driver Revision: 20100226_0142 hdac0: [ITHREAD] hdac1: <Intel 82801JI High Definition Audio Controller> mem 0xfe6f8000-0xfe6fbfff irq 22 at device 27.0 on pci0 hdac1: HDA Driver Revision: 20100226_0142 hdac1: [ITHREAD] hdac0: HDA Codec #0: ATI R6xx HDMI pcm0: <HDA ATI R6xx HDMI PCM #0 HDMI> at cad 0 nid 1 on hdac0 hdac1: HDA Codec #0: Realtek ALC888 pcm1: <HDA Realtek ALC888 PCM #0 Analog> at cad 0 nid 1 on hdac1 pcm2: <HDA Realtek ALC888 PCM #1 Analog> at cad 0 nid 1 on hdac1 pcm3: <HDA Realtek ALC888 PCM #2 Digital> at cad 0 nid 1 on hdac1 pcm4: <HDA Realtek ALC888 PCM #3 Digital> at cad 0 nid 1 on hdac1) I tried windows 7 on the box, no problem, sound is all right. VLC on freebsd doesn't do any sound output. When using a legacy PCI sound card (M-Audio Revolution 5.1), sound is present. I do not have any idea what the muting of the device could trigger. Any suggestions? Please email, too, since I'm not subscribing 'questions'. Thanks. Oliver
