Hi, all.
I have a SoundBlaster Vibra16S(CT2800) soundcard.
When I try to record with wavrec (a part of ports/audio/wavplay), even
if an input source is 2-channel stereo, the recording output becomes
2-channel monaural.

$ mixer -f /dev/mixer1 =rec cd
Recording source: cd
$ cdcontrol play && wavrec -d /dev/dsp1 -M -s 44100 -b 16 -t 30 mono.wav
$ cdcontrol stop
$ cdcontrol play && wavrec -d /dev/dsp1 -S -s 44100 -b 16 -t 30 stereo.wav
$ cdcontrol stop
$ wavplay -d /dev/dsp1 mono.wav stereo.wav

/* listen the two files carefully... */
This behavior is hard-coded in /sys/dev/sound/isa/sb16.c:
| static int
| sb16mix_setrecsrc(struct snd_mixer *m, u_int32_t src)
| {
| struct sb_info *sb = mix_getdevinfo(m);
| u_char recdev;
|
| recdev = 0;
| if (src & SOUND_MASK_MIC)
| recdev |= 0x01; /* mono mic */
|
| if (src & SOUND_MASK_CD)
| recdev |= 0x06; /* l+r cd */
|
| if (src & SOUND_MASK_LINE)
| recdev |= 0x18; /* l+r line */
|
| if (src & SOUND_MASK_SYNTH)
| recdev |= 0x60; /* l+r midi */
|
| sb_setmixer(sb, SB16_IMASK_L, recdev);
| sb_setmixer(sb, SB16_IMASK_R, recdev);
This behavior has not been changed since the newpcm driver was
commited to the FreeBSD source tree (8 years ago).
It seems that there is no one who is worried about this behavior;
even so, I think these are improper settings as default.
It's a fix patch. This patch also fixes `cat /dev/sndstat` output.
