Yes, I do have the /boot/loader.conf speaker_load="YES" That's what troubles me, I'm used to use Yell so I'm certain that my config is ok. One thing I've been made aware of is that a laptop computer maybe do not have a "speaker". Only a sound card will produce sound in the speakers. Any comments on that? /Leslie
