>Description:
in a galaxy far far away a long long time ago (fbsd 4.6ish) sound support for the Maestro 2E on the toshiba 2595xdvd worked. Since then either the card has not worked or in this case since 5.x and now 6.x the card "works" but there are no devices in the mixer so you have no volume.
Mixer rec is currently set to 0:0
Recording source: mic
this might not be a problem if say, for example, you dont listen to mp3's, watch pirated dvd, play pron divx, shoot off a quick game of Enemy Territory or watch some nifty flash web sites.
This same problem has been reported on other PR's for other laptop brands and seems to pretty consistant.
>How-To-Repeat:
own a laptop with a maestro sound card and install fbsd
