Dear all, Following advice from thread(s) :
http://forums.pcbsd.org/showthread.php?t=13976 http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=5136 root@grullahighschool:~ # sysctl hw.snd.default_unit=0 hw.snd.default_unit: 1 -> 0 Got the sound working like it was. How do I get it to stick across reboots? Which would be the preferred way? ie, use file root@grullahighschool:~ # cat /etc/sysctl.conf # $FreeBSD: release/8.4.0/etc/sysctl.conf 112200 2003-03-13 18:43:50Z mux $ # # This file is read when going to multi-user and its contents piped thru # ``sysctl'' to adjust kernel values. ``man 5 sysctl.conf'' for details. # # Uncomment this to prevent users from seeing information about processes that # are being run under another UID. #security.bsd.see_other_uids=0 vfs.usermount=1 hw.snd.vpc_autoreset=0 kern.module_path=/boot/kernel;/boot/modules;/usr/local/modules You have new mail. root@grullahighschool:~ # or place in /boot/loader.conf the line: hw.snd.default_unit="0" ? Thanks for helping figure things out. I had working sound but maybe updating to 8.4-RELEASE changed things around?
