It's permanently at full volume no matter what I set the mixer values to. I know the mixer used to work fine previously when I have changed the volume in XMMS etc but I only just noticed it doesn't any longer. It's possible it's since the change from pcm to snd. Seems like roughly a similar time I think when I last remember it working. I have a soundblaster live! in the machine, however there is also a onboard sound chip on the motherboard but the bios disables this when it detects the soundblaster. Sound is working fine apart from the volume issue. This is with the latest sources from RELENG_5 as I have just done a buildworld dance this morning.
