[solved] Sound problem in 7.2-PRERELEASE

[sakncli]

Hi all,

I have installed new PCBSD iso which is:
> uname -a
> "FreeBSD sakncli 7.2-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 7.2-PRERELEASE #12: Fri Apr 17 15:37:58 EDT 2009 root@pcbsdx32-7:/usr/obj/pcbsd-build71/cvs/7.1-src/sys/PCBSD i386"

everything except the sound is perfect. I can not hear anything when trying to listen music from browser, amarok, kmplayer ... They seem that they are playing the song but I can not hear the music.

> cat /dev/sndstat

FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm: 32bit 2007061600/i386)
Installed devices:
pcm0: <HDA Analog Devices AD1984 PCM #0 Analog> at cad 0 nid 1 on hdac0 kld snd_hda [MPSAFE] (1p:4v/1r:4v channels duplex default)
pcm1: <HDA Analog Devices AD1984 PCM #1 Analog> at cad 0 nid 1 on hdac0 kld snd_hda [MPSAFE] (1p:1v/1r:1v channels duplex)


snd_hda is the correct driver because I was using it properly in PCBSD 1.5.

There's something in the 7.2 release notes (scroll down a bit to multimedia support) which says you may have to specify the default device - maybe give this a try.

HTH,

sysctl -w hw.snd.default_unit=1

solved the problem,
thanks...
