Because the sudden loss of audio in multimedia and player on FreeBSD

Hi

This upgraded system to the day and I don't understand the sudden loss of audio signal.
This installed FreeBSD 10.1 of i386 bits with Xfce Desktop.

If you want useful help provide a useful problem description.

Otherwise we can't do much more than noting that you are unhappy and maybe offer you some chocolate.
 
sudden loss of audio signal
Sounds like Pulseaudio to me.

Joking aside, I am assuming here that you don't hear sounds anymore after upgrading. Make sure that your volume levels are ok (run mixer). Maybe they are muted or too low.

But I agree with rmoe: more details please.
 
I don't know whether your situation is similar to mine, but after using freebsd-update to apply security updates to 10.1-RELEASE-p6, I lost my sound. I found that my default sound unit needed to be changed.

When I first installed 10.1, cat /dev/sndstat looked something like this:
Code:
> cat /dev/sndstat
Installed devices:
pcm0: <Conexant CX20585 (Right Analog 2.0+HP/2.0)> (play/rec) default
pcm1: <Conexant CX20585 (Internal Analog 2.0+HP/2.0)> (play/rec)
pcm2: <Intel Ibex Peak (HDMI/DP 8ch)> (play)
pcm3: <Intel Ibex Peak (HDMI/DP 8ch)> (play)
To get sound to work, I had to set in /etc/sysctl.conf
Code:
hw.snd.default_unit=1
After updating to 10.1-RELEASE-p6, I found this:
Code:
> cat /dev/sndstat
Installed devices:
pcm0: <Conexant CX20585 (Analog 2.0+HP/2.0)> (play/rec)
pcm1: <Intel Ibex Peak (HDMI/DP 8ch)> (play) default
pcm2: <Intel Ibex Peak (HDMI/DP 8ch)> (play)
Changing hw.snd.default_unit back to 0 restored my sound.

Sorry for the delay, when I reproduce the internet radio, in 7 seconds the signal is lost, the same goes for audio players such as VLC, some solution?

Playing a video file:
Code:
$ vlc
