Hi all, I've updated from r302211 (June 26) to r306427 (yesterday), and the behavior of audio/sox (in its play(1) alias) seems to have changed. I used to be able to suspend play(1) for an arbitrary period of time and have the output continue when it was foregrounded again. Now, it seems that I can only suspend it for 4-5 seconds and retain playback; for longer sleeps, I get [1]+ Stopped play 01\ Mary\ Hynes.wav [root@glossolalia ...]# sleep 5; fg play 01\ Mary\ Hynes.wav play FAIL sox: `/dev/dsp' error writing output file: Invalid argument Done. Wrapping play(1) in truss seems to change things, though; in that case, I can sleep for at least two minutes and still recover playback. So that makes it a bit hard to see what's going on. I will note that I did not upgrade ports/packages after the base upgrade, so the sox binary in use is potentially somewhat stale. Does that ring any bells for anyone? -Ben
