Hi
From time to time I try to return to FreeBSD desktop.
This is one of the hiccups while trying out 15-RELEASE.
I've recently aquired SMSL D200 and it works. Unfortunately in bit-perfect mode
the sound is very garbled, altough somewhat resembles the track. Needless to say
it works under Debian 13, just plug and play.
Someone claims it works , but the message is a bit ambiguous.
The device displays right numbers on display while playing tracks with different
sample rates in bit-perfect mode, just like in Debian. Sound seems to be very loud
as I have to turn D200 down from 85 to around 20 (OS mixer doesn't seem to work).
And of course sound is very garbled no matter what loudness is set on D200.
This is what it looks like, while playing 96 kHz track with mpv:
If you're curious the other hiccups are:
* Something is accessing HDD's every 10 minutes in inactive (unmounted) zpool, causing
HDD's to spin up. The only cure is to export the zpool after which the disks stay in standby.
* Screen blanks for few seconds and then comes back as a static picture, freezes in other
words. OS stays operational, ssh access possible, ACPI shutdown works etc. It seems to
happen often when playing soundtracks with cover art with mpv. As soon as the cover art
window pops up the screen blanks, then comes back dead. Not always but often. AMD
