laptop's main speaker ok, headset no sound

selven · #1 June 15th, 2010, 07:38

Hi, i am having some issues with my sound card [i think].

When i am plugging in my headphone music continues to be played by my main speaker in my laptop (hp dv6 1160ei), plus i receive nothing on the headphone. (i tried playing with kmix, nothing happens, only things that can affected is the main volume when i can lower it down or increase.. the headphone is still soundless.)

I have tried a few stuffs including the links found here http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread...7231#post37231

i can't figure it out.
i tried setting sysctl hw.snd.default_unit to 1, nothing.

I also tried doing the device.hints entry hint.hdac.0.cad0.nid10.config="as=1 seq=15"
but i guess i couldn't figure out the proper numbers for the nidxx and as=x and seq=x (since i don't see those figures in my dmesg).

Any clue??

here's a few details about my machine.

my /boot/device.hints file:

Code:

dmesg you have submitted is not verbose. Verbose messages include much more useful info.

here is instructions for us mortals:

Push respective number button in system boot menu or add boot_verbose="YES" into /boot/loader.conf.
