Hello,
Recently I bought a pair of external speakers for my desktop PC. I
overlooked that they don't have a jack to connect them to the internal
sound card, they work alone through a USB port.
$ dmesg

$ usbdevs | grep AUDIO
addr 02: 1130:1620 Ten X Technology, Inc., USB AUDIO
I followed the instructions in Multimedia FAQ and I got them working:
$ grep sndiod /etc/rc.conf.local
sndiod_flags=-f rsnd/0 -F rsnd/1
$ sndioctl
output.level=0.996
output.mute=0
server.device=1
... but modifying level and mute outputs using sndioctl(1) doesn't work
very well. If I ran the following commands one after the other:
$ sndioctl output.level
output.level=0.996
$ sndioctl output.level=-0.05
output.level=0.945
$ sndioctl output.level
output.level=0.996
$ sndioctl output.level=-0.05
output.level=0.953
$ sndioctl output.level
output.level=0.996
... you see that the command initially reports that output.level was
modified, but when you check it again it wasn't (and you don't hear any
change in the level of sound). With the mute control the communication
isn't fine either, after toggling it two or three times sndioctl reports
"no such control" and you have to restart sndiod(8) to make output.mute
appear again.
$ sndioctl output.mute=!
output.mute=1
$ sndioctl output.mute=!
output.mute=0
$ sndioctl output.mute=!
output.mute=1
$ sndioctl output.mute=!
output.mute: no such control
I've tried using mixerctl(8) to modify volume and mute and happens the same.
