The sound unit may change between 7.1 and 7.2. You can try to change the sysctl hw.snd.default_unit If it still doesn't work put a verbose boot dmesg of snd_hda and pcm somewhere (see the man page of snd_hda) and ask on the freebsd-multimedia@ mailing list.

Re: snd-hda no sound whatsoever
which will turn PCM and master volume to 100:100. For checking, it's usually the most comfortable way to play some media file, instead of a "plain file" into /dev/dsp. "plain binary" will make plain noise ;) so it's good test The play command from the port / package sox or mpg123 / madplay for mp3 files work well, as does mplayer. Have a look at where /dev/dsp points to, it should be the dsp0 device. I don't have furtther experiences with the hda stuff, so these would be my basic ideas. -- Polytropon From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org" ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Looking at your 2 analog and 1 digital output, the following from snd_hda4 man page probably applies to you: According to HDA and UAA specifications, depending on the number of HDA buses and codecs present in system, their audio capabilities and BIOS provided configuration, the snd_hda driver often provides several PCM audio devices. For example, one device for main rear 7.1 output and inputs, one device for independent headset connectors at front and one device for SPDIF or HDMI audio input/output. The assignment of audio inputs and outputs may be tuned with device.hints(5). The driver's ver- bose boot messages provide a lot of information about the operation of the driver and present audio setup. The default audio device may be tuned by setting the hw.snd.default_unit sysctl, as described in sound(4), or explicitly specified in application settings. -- Mel ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

>From your diagnostics, the sound card seems to be detected okay, as far as I see it. Things worth checking are the mixer settings, such as: % mixer pcm 100 % mixer vol 100 which will turn PCM and master volume to 100:100. For checking, it's usually the most comfortable way to play some media file, instead of a "plain file" into /dev/dsp.
