The last problem I have is using the builtin microphone, which is supposedly somehow connected to the webcam, so to make sure I installed multimedia/webcamd. I use OSS as my sound system. I can use microphone and speakers under audacity if I set the playback device to /dev/dsp, but the recording device to /dev/dsp1. How do I configure OSS to use these settings by default unless an application explicitly demands something else? In skype, I cannot select a specific sound device, just "oss" or "default" or "hdmi", and if those in- and outputs work, they sound like a reasonable default anyway. -- Gereon In case it helps, in particular if someone later needs to stumble upon this because they have a similar problem: $ cat /dev/sndstat FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm: 64bit 2009061500/amd64) Installed devices: pcm0: (play/rec) default pcm1: (play/rec) pcm2: (play) pcm3: (play) pcm4: (play) $ mixer Mixer vol is currently set to 80:80 Mixer pcm is currently set to 100:100 Mixer speaker is currently set to 100:100 Mixer line is currently set to 90:90 Mixer mic is currently set to 67:67 Mixer mix is currently set to 80:80 Mixer rec is currently set to 100:100 Mixer ogain is currently set to 100:100 Recording source: mic $ mixer -f /dev/dsp Mixer pcm is currently set to 45:45 Mixer rec is currently set to 45:45 $ mixer -f /dev/dsp1 Mixer pcm is currently set to 45:45 Mixer rec is currently set to 45:45
