I'm loving OBSD 4.0/i386, but have a 4DWAVE sound card where the internal
synth doesn't produce any sound. Normal audio (ogg123, plaympeg) works
fine.
$ midiplay -l
0: 4DWAVE MIDI UART
1: PC speaker
$ midiplay -x -d 0
(pauses a few seconds as if it were working, but no sound.)
I've tried cranking/unmuting everything pertinent in mixerctl.
Previously I was using onboard CMI8738 sound, and its synth worked
fine.
I also have a couple of SB Awe64 cards I was trying in another box, and
had the exact same problem (normal audio ok, but synth is silent.) So I
think I've ruled out hardware.
Moreover I'm interested to know if anyone using these cards has their
synth working. Any advice appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave
