A regression test ("git bisect") would be very helpful in isolating this
regression. I would do one, but my sound is perfect, it needs to be done by
someone with sound problems.
Also only 15 commits to sys/dev/sound exist between the merge base of 14.3
and 14.4:
$ git merge-base release/14.3.0 release/14.4.0
ad1f2e80c8324716e80aa9d2955f42e68cc66308
$ git log ad1f2e80c8324716e80aa9d2955f42e68cc66308..release/14.4.0
sys/dev/sound | grep ^commit | wc -l
15
so the bug is probably in one of those.
