Speaking of weird audio problems under 4.0 ... With 4.0-S on the Sony 505TR when I reboot I get no standard sound, no beeps, until I change the volume setting with the bios Fn-F4 setting. It then works fine through suspends, etc. cat foo > /dev/audio works ok, echotc -s bl (to get a BEL character) does nothing. Bios sound mute is _not_ on, the starting volume is mid way. I can change the volume down slightly, and magically beep/bells start working. If I disable pcm/sbc0 beeps work (but I get no real audio, of course). I'm using; device pcm device sbc0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x15 FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Apr 19 2000 00:53:47 Installed devices: pcm0: <SB DSP 3.01 (ESS mode)> at io 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 (1p/1r channels) Something not getting initialised properly in newpcm/4.0 that did in pcm/3.4 ? Weirdness. On the subject of audio weirdness, xmms with the equaliser turned on produces cracking noise ... works fine with the eq. turned off. I have some vauge recollection of someone already mentioning this.
