I gave up trying to figure out what the problem was and went back to FreeBSD. FreeBSD recognizes the sound chip as a Realtek ALC887 and the audio playback device under the music category is OSS. For thread subject's sake, just stay on FreeBSD and don't polute the discussion with your stupid unrelated problems, please. I hate to see somebody unrelated to subject jumping in the middle of an interesting thread. As far as I know Alexandre Ratchov is a main developer on OpenBSD's sound infrastructure, so I preffer to read his remarks not yours. Not to mention that you didn't seem to report your problem back then. Thank you.

I was talking about the recording end; by default we use both play and record if the device supports both. But, with certain BIOSes the recording end is disabled in a way the azalia driver keeps detecting recording capability, in turn it attempts to use it and fails. Does cat /dev/audio0 /tmp/foo works (produces non-zero length file)? Do you have a disable the microphone feature in the BIOS? maybe in some security section?

If so, make sure that the microphone/recording/whatever is enabled. The audio device is enabled in the BIOS. Note that cat /dev/urandom /dev/audio initially works and that system bell always works (if the device was disabled I suppose they wouldn't).

No. However, the type of error depends on what state the system is in (before or after aucat has been tried). Immediately after reboot: $ cat /dev/audio0 /tmp/foo cat: /dev/audio0: Device not configured $ cat /dev/urandom /dev/audio # Results in the expected noise played on the speakers. ^C $ aucat -i test.wav # No sound, it just hangs. ^C^C After the 'aucat' invocation the system appears to be in a different state: $ cat /dev/audio0 /tmp/foo # Different error message: cat: /dev/audio0: Device busy $ cat /dev/urandom /dev/audio # No noise this time. -bash: /dev/audio: Device busy $ fuser /dev/audio* /dev/audioctl2: /dev/audioctl1: /dev/audioctl0: /dev/audioctl: /dev/audio2: /dev/audio1: /dev/audio0: 31156 /dev/audio: 31156 $ ps ax | grep 31156 31156 ?? Is 0:00.01 /usr/bin/sndiod 18289 p4 R+ 0:00.00 grep 31156 This sequence is perfectly reproducible (after rebooting). Do you have a disable the microphone feature in the BIOS? maybe in some security section? There is only one setting to enable/disable the audio device and it is enabled. (I searched the menus exhaustively, including the security section.) In case it matters, the machine is a GB-BXi7-4770R.

Yes. The one holding on to /dev/audio is sndiod. After killing it I can make noise with cat /dev/urandom /dev/audio again.

Re: Audio problems on OpenBSD 5.7
In fact, after killing sndiod things work fine, *except* for that afterwards only one program can play sound simultaneously.

Same here. The mixer doesn't recognize the sound chip is the problem I have. Audioctl and mixerctl both output the various settings when run in a terminal from KDE, but no sound device is listed in the setup dialog. Stan
Re: Audio problems on OpenBSD 5.7
I gave up trying to figure out what the problem was and went back to FreeBSD. Great advice. If that also doesn't work he could get rid of his system and pick up guttural singing. -- Maurits Fennis

I was using KDE and the notifications type sounds worked but no sound card was recognized by Kmix. I gave up trying to figure out what the problem was and went back to FreeBSD. FreeBSD recognizes the sound chip as a Realtek ALC887 and the audio playback device under the music category is OSS. Stan
