The pc-speakers and the sound card are different circuits.
Right, I know that. What I'm wondering is if there's some magic incantation for mixerctl or some other utility that will let output intended for the console speaker to be 'copied' or otherwise redirected to the headphone/line output.
OpenBSD console can only use the pc-speaker as the console beep and there's no way to emulate it using the sound-card.
I'm not sure if 'emulation' is what I'm looking for. I mean, one way or another the system is sending a sine wave down that path that causes the motherboard speaker to beep (normally). Surely there's some way to make it send that signal to the chip running the jacks on the back, right? Maybe if not via a utility then via tweaking a custom kernel?
Could you show the output of "mixerctl -v" ?
Sure, but gimme a few hours. I don't have the machine in front of me at the moment.
