Hi, I am having problems getting a sound card with a CMedia CMI8738 chipset working on 4.3-STABLE (13 July). In my kernel config, I have the following line entry: device pcm During boot, the following messages appear: pcm0: <CMedia CMI8738> port 0xd800-0xd8ff irq 11 at device 12.0 on pci0 cat /dev/sndstat gives: FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Jul 25 2001 21:52:10 Installed devices: pcm0: <CMedia CMI8738> at io 0xd800 irq 11 (1p/1r channels duplex) If I cat a .au file to /dev/audio, things work fine - I get sound, althoughm, interestingly, no activity on the SPDIF port on the sound card. If I run an audio player, like xmms, I get no sound, however, the SPDIF port comes to life, and when I attach my Minidisc recorder I get perfect sound through the SPDIF port. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening, and how do I get the sound card to play to one (or more) of its analogue ports with applications that use /dev/dsp? (Please reply to me directly and to the list.) Thanks, Geoff. -- Geoff Rehmet, Internet Solutions tel: +27-11-283-5462, fax: +27-11-283-5401 mobile: +27-83-292-5800 email: geoffr@is.co.za URL: http://www.is.co.za To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
