Hello again, This one's actually been plaguing me for a long time, but I never bothered to write about it until now. I have a SoundBlaster 16 ASP card in my FreeBSD box (older legacy board, not Plug-and-Pray.. er, Play). It's configured on IRQ10, and the system finds it when it boots up: sb0 at 0x220 irq 10 drq 1 on isa sb0: <SoundBlaster 16 4.5> sbxvi0 at 0x0 drq 5 on isa sbxvi0: <SoundBlaster 16 4.5> sbmidi0 at 0x330 on isa <SoundBlaster MPU-401> opl0 at 0x388 on isa opl0: <Yamaha OPL-3 FM> However, whenever I try to cat a file to /dev/audio, be it a .au, .wav, or whatever, I always get: /dev/audio: Device busy. I get that if I'm root, or if I'm a user.. doesn't matter. /dev/audio has the following properties: [118]data@ds9:/home/data % ls /dev/audio lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 6 May 5 1998 /dev/audio@ -> audio0 [119]data@ds9:/home/data % ls /dev/audio0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 30, 4 May 5 1998 /dev/audio0 I've tried it after a fresh boot, and I get the same thing. Any ideas? Thanks in advance! ********************************************************************** * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.net * * WWW: http://home.dreamhaven.net/~data * * "Insanity takes its toll.
