Poulin" Subject: Audio CD's won't play through the sound card. Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I have recently recompiled my kernel with support for my sound card (sb16). It seems to work (at least I was able to hear the little .au file that I redirected to /dev/audio), but I still can't get the CDs to play through the sound card. When I try either cdplayer or xcd, I am able to plug a headset into the CD-Rom drive and hear the music through it, but the music refuses to come out of my sound card. If I boot in Windoze (I have a dual-boot system) there is no problem playing CDs through the same sound card; therefore the hardware is not defective in any way. I am also unable to play .mp3's via x11amp, so there may be more to my problem than I am anticipating. I'm not at my home computer right now, so I can't tell you the exact error that it gives. Can anyone help me with this? Also, is there a good comprehensive site on sound cards / multimedia for FreeBSD? I've searched the FAQ, Handbook, and a few tutorials, but there doesn't seem to be much in-depth info in this area, unless I am totally missing something. Thanks in advance, MP.
