Dear list subscribers, I have installed OpenBSD-current on my Acer C720p Chromebook. I am using -current because I had problems with X11 with the 5.7 release. Audio used to work out of the box on that device with earlier versions of -current, but has stopped working in the most recent version I have installed (Playback of an MP3-file with either VLC or mpg123 produced no sound) $ uname -a OpenBSD alex-acer-720p.my.domain 5.8 GENERIC.MP#1206 amd64
Excerpt from dmesg follows: [...] azalia0 at pci0 dev 3 function 0 "Intel Core 4G HD Audio" rev 0x09: msi azalia0: No codecs found [...] azalia1 at pci0 dev 27 function 0 "Intel 8 Series HD Audio" rev 0x04: msi azalia1: codecs: Realtek/0x0283 audio0 at azalia1 [...] (The entire dmesg can be found at: http://www.alexshendi.org/tmp/dmesg-c720p-20150730.txt) However I had some success in getting sound to work: I added the line: sndiod_flags='-f /dev/audio1' to /etc/rc.conf.local Now playing an MP3-file in VLC works, but I'm not able to adjust the volume in VLC. Does this have something to do with /dev/audioctl? I noticed that both /dev/audio and /dev/audioctl are symlinks to /dev/audio0 resp. /dev/audioctl0. Sould I change these links to point to audio1 and audioctl1? Any suggestions will be appreciated. Many thanks in advance. Best Regards, Alexander
