FreeBSD vm2.pnet.one.pl 8.0-RC2 FreeBSD 8.0-RC2 #0: Sun Oct 25 08:55:51 UTC 2009     root@almeida.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  i386
>Description:
Using VirtualBox 3.0.8 on WindowsXP I don't have the sound in the FreeBSD
guest on default volume of 50. Changing it to 49 or 100 gives maximum volume.
Turns out it wraps on 50 - ie. any $vol>49 is the same as $vol-50.
Similar thing occurs on "pcm" control.

# sysctl hw.snd.verbose=4
# cat /dev/sndstat

>How-To-Repeat:
1. install VirtualBox 3.0.8
2. install FreeBSD 8.0-RC2 i386 as guest
3. kldload snd_ich
4. mixer pcm 50 (default)
5. try playing something
>Fix:
Adjust volume to 100.
