Hi, I recently install freebsd 4.8 on my laptop and am having some problems with the sound. First, xmms works great no problems. For some wave files I can play them no problem and some will not play. No error message, wavplay just quits right away without playing the sound. What can I do to trouble-shoot this better? My main concern is that the sound from xmame is not working. It works in freebsd 4.7 on my desktop machine. Here is my setup: uname -a FreeBSD r2d2 4.8-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE #1: Sun Apr 20 00:06:26 EDT 2003 root@r2d2:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/R2D2 i386 cat /dev/sndstat FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Installed devices: pcm0: <ESS Technology Maestro-2E> at I/O port 0x3000 irq 11 (4p/0r/4v channels duplex) I also have in my /etc/sysctl.conf hw.snd.pcm0.vchans=4 I can provide working and not working wave files if anyone is interested. Thanks for everyones time. Lucas
