It shows the device is configured. Do any of the command-line tools work... mpg123 &c? Try setting the sound device explicitly (eg mpg123 -a /dev/dsp foo.mp3). Try it also as root. > cat /dev/sndstat > FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) > pcm0: <ESS Technology Maestro-2E> at I/O port 0x1400 irq 5 (4p/0r/4v > channels duplex) ~(0)% cat /dev/sndstat FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Installed devices: pcm0: <ESS Technology Allegro-1> at io 0x3000 irq 5 (4p/1r/0v channels duplex) There was a post yesterday explaining this.
