Hello, I run FreeBSD 8.x in a VMWare hosted on Win7. The VM presents the Intel HDA sound card of the laptop as AudioPCI ES1371-A and I have to use the driver snd_es137x(4) which works fine with only the problem that I can not manage to record from the headset micro. The headset micro works fine in Win7 and it switches between the laptop build-in micro and the headset micro on plug-in; as well while running FreeBSD before as host system on this laptop I could record from both micro (using the snd_hda(4) driver. The output of /dev/sndstat is: $ cat /dev/sndstat FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm: 32bit 2007061600/i386) Installed devices: pcm0: <AudioPCI ES1371-A> at io 0x2040 irq 16 kld snd_es137x [MPSAFE] (2p:4v/1r:4v channels duplex default) i.e. there is only pcm0 and no pcm1 (should it?) I also tried setting: # sysctl dev.pcm.0.play.vchans=4 # sysctl dev.pcm.0.rec.vchans=4 # sysctl hw.snd.maxautovchans=4 mixer(1) says: $ mixer Mixer vol is currently set to 85:85 Mixer pcm is currently set to 100:100 Mixer line is currently set to 90:90 Mixer mic is currently set to 83:83 Mixer cd is currently set to 83:83 Mixer rec is currently set to 72:72 Mixer igain is currently set to 90:90 Mixer line1 is currently set to 83:83 Mixer phin is currently set to 86:86 Mixer video is currently set to 86:86 Recording source: mic and I tried changing to all available recording devices: $ mixer bla ... rec devices: vol, line, mic, cd, line1, phin, phout, video with no luck; any idea how could I record from headset micro?
