Hi all,
This is a cross-post [1] from the PC-BSD forums; I wanted to ask here, too, as there's more traffic. Here's the gist:
I'm having a problem with sound on a 1,1 Mac Pro. I have a pastebin (also appended below) with (some of?) the particulars:
Sound works, but with everything at 100%, the volume is incredibly low (it sounds like it's turned down to 5%). I've looked over the FreeBSD handbook, as well as the PC-BSD wiki, but I haven't found an answer in either of those docs.
I've tried modifying the hw.snd.default_unit values, but that hasn't worked.
I want to reiterate that I'm able to get sound, it's just being delivered at a not-quite-usable-level. Let me know if there's additional data I can provide. Suggestions are greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
