I have been a user of OpenBSD for a number of years (4 I think) and usually manage to solve my problems alone however I am having trouble getting my audio to work on this computer.
$ mixerctl -a | grep master outputs.master=207,207 outputs.master.mute=off This is the relevant output of dmesg: autri0 at pci0 dev 1 function 4 "SiS 7018 Audio" rev 0x01: irq 5 ac97: codec id 0x43525934 (Cirrus Logic CS4299 rev 4) ac97: codec features headphone, 20 bit DAC, 18 bit ADC, Crystal Semi 3D audio0 at autri0 midi0 at autri0: <4DWAVE MIDI UART> I struggled with the above setup so installed a spare card I had lying around and tried to disable autri* using config. I got a little lost but dont think it is a good solution anyway. Here is the card I installed: eap0 at pci0 dev 11 function 0 "Ensoniq CT5880" rev 0x02: irq 11 ac97: codec id 0x83847609 (SigmaTel STAC9721/23) ac97: codec features 18 bit DAC, 18 bit ADC, SigmaTel 3D audio1 at eap0 midi1 at eap0: <AudioPCI MIDI UART tried to $ cat filename > /dev/audio1 did not work because / is read only and /dev/audio1 did not exist. remounted / writeable tried to create audio1 but did not get it right so moved audio0 to audio1 and replaced the symlink between audio and audio0 with one between audio and audio1. This is the output of ls -al run from /dev lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 6 Apr 21 09:34 audio -> audio1 crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 42, 128 Apr 21 09:42 audio1 lrwx------ 1 root wheel 9 Mar 9 11:31 audioctl -> audioctl0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 42, 192 Mar 9 11:31 audioctl0 $ cat filename > /dev/audio $ cat filename > /dev/audio1 Both the above commands do not produce sound. I am lost and need help so that I can feed my podcast habit. I have never managed to get the audio going on this machine but now have no choice as my other one has died. Regards David
