I have been trying to get my sound system working with FreeBSD. I built the kernel with pcm and pnp cat >/dev/audio ring.au seems to work fine - ie it plays a tune. cat >t.au </dev/audio creates a file t.au with nothing but nulls. The size of this file is proportional to the time I permit the command to continue until I terminate it with ^C Invoking mixer seems to indicate everything as one would expect. All values are set bettween 75:75 to 100:100. mixer recsrc return microphone. I have tested the microphone/headset on my windows NT machine using sound recorder. Seems to work fine. I am running a Cyrx Media GX using integrated SB compatible sound. When I listen to a file on my Windows/NT machine it is clear as a bell. When I listen to the same file on my FreeBSD maching there is a very noticable white background noise. Anybody want to suggest something here?
