more unimplemented commands in azalia driver

[Rob Lytle]

Hi,

I was trying to use the gmfsk digital radio communication program with
azalia but ran into some snags.

It is giving the sound card commands it can't recognize:

sound_open_for_read: sndopen: setinfo failed: m   and
sound_open_for_write: sndopen: setinfo failed: m

Gmfsk uses /dev/audio.  I assume those are OSS commands.

Thanks,  Rob

Is that really the error message?  What a horrible error
message.

The program is probably trying to use an unsupported sample
rate. If there are options that allow you to set the sample
rate, try either 44100 or 48000 Hz.

you assume incorrectly.  gmfsk doesn't use OSS.

gmfsk uses 8000Hz sampling rates by default, which probably doesn't work
with some (most) azalia(4) codecs.
