Please use the device's sysctl > context (obtained with device_get_sysctl_ctx()) This was based upon a suggestion by me. We want to get rid of most sound related syscalls (at least those which belong into the realm of the user, and not into the realm of the administrator). Until we have an application and an interface, we have to life with the sysctls, but to let the users know that this is not an interface but a temporary workaround, it's put into the debug MIB. I hope we will not ship 7.0-RELEASE with any such sysctl (any help appreciated).
