Hi

I'm using mpd and ncmpc to play music on my headless server equipped
with a VIA EN12000EG motherboard (auvia soundcard). It's running
-current built yesterday and the most recent mpd package from
ftp://mirrors.nic.funet.fi/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/packages/i386
(mpd-0.13.2p2).

Sometimes when I play a song, some very loud shrieking sounds are heard
together with the chosen song. If I stop the player, the annoying sounds
sometimes keep on playing (forever). Stopping and starting a song a few
times helps and I'm eventually able to play a song without the shrieking
sounds.

I updated the machine yesterday, because I hoped the problem would go
away, i.e. I also had the problem with a one or two month old -current.

I will try mplayer tonight. I cannot install the mplayer package due to
wrong minor in stdc++, so I'll have to build the port. Before
upgrading, mplayer showed the same symptoms as mpd.

What can I do to diagnose the problem?

dmesg and list of installed packages are attached.

Thanks!

Martin
