Is the CD audio output being routed through your sound card before going to the speakers? If so, you haven't compiled a kernel for FreeBSD that has the appropriate drivers and your sound card isn't being initialised. Most sound cards default to having no output when reset by power on / hard reset. (AFAIK) Gary -- Gary Palmer FreeBSD Core Team Member FreeBSD - Turning PC's into workstations.
