I'm using an Ensoniq ES1371 PCI sound card (I believe this is the same as the SoundBlaster 128 PCI). After recompiling the kernel with: device pcm added to the kernel config file, then creating the dev entries with: ./MAKEDEV snd0 in /dev, I reboot to find that my sound card is properly recognized. The following is an excerpt from dmesg indicating this: pcm0: port 0xe800-0xe83f irq 9 at device 14.0 on pci0. However, when I try to play a sound file, I only get sound through the left channel. I have sound working in Linux, so I don't believe it's a hardware problem. Has anyone else had this problem with this particular card? Is there something I'm forgetting to do here? Any help would be greatly appreciated. -Marvin To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
