Hello,
I tested freeBSD -- released 8.0 amd64

I 've read
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/sound-setup.html

but I've got problem to configured my sound card.

I've do this (below) but nothing sound go out of my speaker.
(it run well under LINUX Debian.)

Code: 
[cyrille@freeBSD]~> cat /boot/loader.conf 
# SON
  snd_hda_load="YES"

Code: 
[cyrille@freeBSD]~> dmesg | grep pcm
pcm0: <HDA Silicon Image SiI1392 HDMI PCM #0 Digital> at cad 1 nid 1 on hdac0
pcm1: <HDA Sigmatel STAC9228X PCM #0 Analog> at cad 2 nid 1 on hdac0
pcm2: <HDA Sigmatel STAC9228X PCM #1 Analog> at cad 2 nid 1 on hdac0
pcm3: <HDA Sigmatel STAC9228X PCM #2 Digital> at cad 2 nid 1 on hdac0

Code: 
[cyrille@freeBSD]~> cat /dev/sndstat

% cdcontrol -f /dev/acd0 play 1 run well but no sound go out of the box !

Do do you have any ideas to solve this problem ?

Thx, cyrille
 
Hello and thanx
I tried but no sound. No solved...

Do you want logs ?

Any other ideas ?

Thx Cyrille
 
From the command line as root you might want to try:
# mixer
and make sure the ogain is not set to 0. If it is then do:
# mixer ogain 75:75
or anything up to 100:100.

Also, have you tried anything other than cdcontrol?

Yes I tried with X application (rymthbox) but it's the same

Couldn't it be a permission problem ?

@bjs: the gain is OK


@mav@ I look about logs and post it asap !

thx
Cyrille
 
I found this in [CMD=]dmesg[/CMD]

Any idea ?
 
And here an extrait of my [CMD="lspci"][/CMD] under lenny

Oups I look this

Code: 
[cyrille@freeBSD]/home/cyrille# mixer
Mixer vol      is currently set to 100:100
Mixer pcm      is currently set to  75:75

I haven't got the ogain value
 
I see several points:
- cdcontrol will not work (by default) in your case, as your codec configuration doesn't include CD input pin defined. Some experiments of setting device.hints probably required to make it work (if it is possible). Any way cdcontrol is a bad way to do initial testing.
- your mixer shows to few controls. You should retry it again, after setting `sysctl hw.snd.default_unit=1`, as specified above. You should see at least few more controls and pass default applications I/O to the right way.
- try to check headphones output first. Sometimes additional hints for GPIO pins may be needed to make speaker work, so let not mix all together.

PS: Make sure you have read an understood snd_hda(4) man page.
 
Great it works !

New controls appear well after the sysctl hw.snd.default_unit=1 command.
But the values must be superior to 80 to heard something (I made the previous tests with the 75 % and nothing go out of the box)!
So It's solved !

Thanx you very much !

I am going to look of the problem with cdcontrol

Have fun Cyrille
