If you plug an external loudspeaker into the jack socket, is sound audible and balanced (left/right)?

 

[indomitableMoron]

honestly, I just fought with sound on my fresh 14.0 install only to discover SOMEHOW my speakers' input had been changed. So, my advice is to check all components to make sure they are in a known functional state.

 

[Cath O'Deray]

Similar:

I forgot to mention, beyond the obvious problem (nothing audible):

• YouTube content will not play.

So, for example, I can't watch and read subtitles.

It's easier, less frustrating, for me to use an iPad. Sorry.

What's the output of dmesg | grep pcm?

 

[Cath O'Deray]

taiwan740 FreeBSD-CURRENT, so I shouldn't seek support here.

Inaudible. I think the sound card was not driven or not used.

It looks like it's picking it up correctly, but for some reason, the pins that refer to the speakers are disabled and muted.

Maybe try sticking the following into /etc/sysctl.conf

dev.hdaa.1.gpio_config="0=set 1=set"
hw.snd.default_unit=1
dev.hdaa.1.nid33_config="as=4 seq=15"

After that. run this to take effect


service sysctl restart
service sndiod restart


After that, run sysctl dev.hdaa again and see if it makes a difference to the lines regarding the speakers

 

[Cath O'Deray]

hw.snd.default_unit=1

I thought 1 was/is NVIDIA (not Realtek) in this case. As in, pcm1. Am I totally confused?

It's hdaa1, therefore ...default_unit=1
Edit: no it isn't

Sorry, yes, I messed up reading my own how-to guide.

It worked! Now there is sound from my headphone. Thank you very much!
Can I do the same with my speaker? It seemed that all speakers are marked as "[DISABLED]".
And is there a way to make headphones and speaker auto detect my device(sound form speaker if I don't plug in my headphones and form headphones if I do)?
