From: Dan Naumov To: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org Cc: Subject: RE: kern/40711: CT5880-C sometimes fails to output sound Date: Sat, 19 Apr 2003 05:21:28 +0300 I just noticed a very strange thing: After my sound dissapeared again a few hours ago, I started looking for ways to get it back without a reboot and this is what I ran into: ========================== localhost# sysctl hw.snd hw.snd.targetirqrate: 32 hw.snd.report_soft_formats: 1 hw.snd.verbose: 1 hw.snd.unit: 0 hw.snd.maxautovchans: 4 hw.snd.pcm0.buffersize: 4096 hw.snd.pcm0.vchans: 1 ========================== After doing this: ========================== localhost# sysctl hw.snd.pcm0.vchans=4 hw.snd.pcm0.vchans: 1 -> 4 ========================== The sound seems to work in all apps again. Is it possible that something "bumps down" the value of hw.snd.pcm0.vchans causing problems at the same time ? -- Dan Naumov
