https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=284435 Christos Margiolis <christos@freebsd.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |christos@freebsd.org Status|New |Open --- Comment #1 from Christos Margiolis <christos@freebsd.org> --- Hello Thandeka, I changed the behavior you are describing as of 14.1. Previously each device would create a /dev/dspX.Y node for each channel opened. I scrapped this mechanism to instead create a single /dev/dspX file for each device, and handle all the channel routing internally. The actual commit and a more in-depth explanation can be found here: https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/commit/?id=e8c0d15a64fadb4a330f2da7244becaac161bb70 Regarding not being able to change a specific process' volume with mixer(8) anymore, this was actually discouraged even before: "Users are strongly discouraged to access them directly." (in reference to the /dev/dspX.Y channels). I am thinking of adding per-process volume handling in the mixer utility at some point in the future as a quality-of-life feature, but normally per-process volume should be handled from inside the process itself. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
