Things will matter for recording, well, if you need more that 1 recording apps running. Situations are bit different for other drivers due to total play/rec channels limit, hence the need for vchan (or vrec, for record). > Another freebsd gamer friend is running -CURRENT (from 2 weeks ago) > and reported no problem.
