Okay, yours is the second report of this problem I've seen. I've just taken a look at the ALSA driver and can see they are doing several things different from us at this point in time. I only have the specs for the 8233C (under NDA) and it has no comment on the variations in registers. Everything the ALSA people are doing is within the spec, but they have some non-obvious stuff that makes me think they have more data sources. I'll have a go re-working the driver in the next couple of weeks... - Orion To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
