I posted this query FreeBSD-multimedia earlier, in the hope that I might find some pointers there, but to no avail. I seem to have run into a problem with getting a CMedia sound card (CMI8738 chipset) working with 4.3-STABLE or 4.4-RELEASE. For any program that talks to /dev/dsp, only the SPDIF port is active, while the speakers work when using /dev/audio (no SPDIF then). Dmesg output includes the following: pcm0: <CMedia CMI8738> port 0xd800-0xd8ff irq 11 at device 12.0 on pci0 And cat /dev/sndstat gives: redpoint:~% cat /dev/sndstat FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Jul 25 2001 21:52:10 Installed devices: pcm0: <CMedia CMI8738> at io 0xd800 irq 11 (1p/1r channels duplex) I hope I am not missing anything really obvious. Any help on this one would be appreciated.
