Then tried to add to /boot/device.hints
Code:
hint.hdac.0.cad0.nid28.config="as=2 seq=1 device=CD conn=Fixed"

but no sound gets to speakers while cdcontrol is running.
Code:
 > cdcontrol status
Audio status = 17<playing>, current track = 5, current position = 0:02.14
No media catalog info available
Left volume = 255, right volume = 255

Have tried many hints but had no success. I admit that concept of association numbers and sequence numbers is not really understood. Please help.

PS: CDROM drive is connected with cable to connector on mainboard.
 
Thank you mav, now mixer has cd device!!!
Code:
> mixer
Mixer vol      is currently set to  84:84
Mixer pcm      is currently set to 100:100
Mixer line     is currently set to 100:100
Mixer mic      is currently set to   0:0
Mixer cd       is currently set to  76:76
Mixer mix      is currently set to   0:0
Mixer rec      is currently set to   0:0
Mixer ogain    is currently set to 100:100
Recording source: mic
This is a really big step after almost hundred reboots.

Unfortunately still no sound from cd can be heard. Cdcontrol status sends this to console:
Code:
acd0: FAILURE - READ_SUBCHANNEL ILLEGAL REQUEST asc=0x00 ascq=0x11

acd0 is a DVD-recorder with this in kernelconfig:
Code:
# ATA and ATAPI devices
device          ata    
device          atadisk         # ATA disk drives
device          ataraid         # ATA RAID drives
device          atapicd         # ATAPI CDROM drives
device          atapicam        # ATAPI DVD da0     
#device         atapifd         #-ATAPI floppy drives
#device         atapist         #-ATAPI tape drives  
options         ATA_STATIC_ID   # Static device numbering
Now question is if more hints are necessary or acd0 is misconfigured?
 
Have you tried to set 'mix' mixer control to nonzero value? It controls both input mixing volume and volume of input-to-output loopback. If you update your system to 8-STABLE, one more control 'igain' should appear. It controls especially input-to-output loopback volume.

In verbose output it is possible to see how the signal goes and where it is affected by different mixer controls.
 
Hi mav,
when I started the system values of mixer 'mix' were 75 and of 'cd' 75. Then started cdcontrol to play and got no sound. But now I realized, that I have to change the value first like
Code:
> mixer cd 60
and then sound from cd can be heared. So just starting cdcontrol is not sufficent, volume has to be changed too. I do not know, if this behaviour is wanted by design or not.

Let me ask again about these error like messages generated by

Code:
> cdcontrol status
You can see the output on my previous post. I ask about this, because in KsCD (kdemultimedia-4.3.5) CD just runs 6 seconds then falls back to 0 second runs again 6 seconds and repeats this as a loop. Unfortunately without any sound there. Moving the mixer rules makes no difference in KDE4.

Now my intention is first to make sure, the sound system works fine in plain freebsd before looking after the problems with audiocd in KDE4.
 
Part about unmuting sound with changing mixer value is probably a bug, and I think it may be already fixed in 8-STABLE.

What's about that error - I have no idea.

In /etc/devfs.conf there were wrong links. Now changed links to

Code:
link    acd0    cdrom
link    acd0    dvd

and CD sound in KDE4 can be heared. Thread is solved.
