Hi,

Running FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE (GENERIC) (amd64)
ASUS P6T6 MB

# kldload snd_driver
# cat /dev/sndstat

FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm: 64bit 2009061500/amd64)
Installed devices:
pcm0: <HDA Analog Devices AD1989B PCM #0 Analog> (play/rec) default
pcm1: <HDA Analog Devices AD1989B PCM #1 Analog> (play)
pcm2: <HDA Analog Devices AD1989B PCM #2 Digital> (play)
pcm3: <HDA Analog Devices AD1989B PCM #3 Digital> (play)
pcm4: <HDA ATI R6xx HDMI PCM #0 HDMI> (play)

Using Gnome desktop, trying to play various mp3 files and video files
results in the mp3 player, video player running, but not sound
produced on either the speaker outputs or headphone.

Here is mixer output:

Mixer vol      is currently set to  75:75
Mixer pcm      is currently set to  75:75
Mixer speaker  is currently set to  75:75
Mixer line     is currently set to  75:75
Mixer mic      is currently set to   0:0
Mixer cd       is currently set to  75:75
Mixer mix      is currently set to   0:0
Mixer rec      is currently set to  75:75
Mixer igain    is currently set to   0:0
Mixer monitor  is currently set to  75:75
Recording source: mic


I'm not new to Freebsd, but this is the first time I've tried to get
sound working on it. Any help would be very appreciated.

Thanks,
Scott
