Low sound
Hi all. I've very strange problem with FreeBSD 8-stable sinceone year (yes it's not a urgent problem;-) ). I've a desktop PC, two laptops (two dell). On those 3 computers the sounds is working. But on all the sound level is very low. When I use mplayer event I push the level to maximum I almost ear the sound. But when I reboot on windows on the same computer the sound level is very loud. Any advise ? Regards.

After reading the man I put the mixer pcm to 75:75 and everything come to normal. thanks you very much.

Very low sound volume on Lenovo X200
I can't get the sound to play above a whisper on my newish laptop. It has two sound channels, one for internal speakers, one for the plug, and it's the same problem for both. Every software sound control, of which there are several, is set to the max. The hardware is fine, it works correctly under Windows (sigh.) Here's dmesg's opinion of what it's got. hdac0: Intel 82801I High Definition Audio Controller mem 0xf262-0xf2623fff irq 17 at device 27.0 on pci0 hdac0: HDA Driver Revision: 20090624_0136 hdac0: [ITHREAD] I see that the hda driver has a vast array of options, suggesting that something is defaulting wrong. Any suggestions? Here's what it's got now, from the pindump: hdac0: Dumping AFG cad=0 nid=1 pins: hdac0: nid 22 0x042140f0 as 15 seq 0Headphones Jack jack 1 loc 4 color Green misc 0 hdac0:Caps:OUT HP Sense: 0x7fff hdac0: nid 23 0x61a190f0 as 15 seq 0 Mic None jack 1 loc 33 color Pink misc 0 [DISABLED] hdac0:Caps: IN VREF Sense: 0x7fff hdac0: nid 24 0x04a190f0 as 15 seq 0 Mic Jack jack 1 loc 4 color Pink misc 0 hdac0:Caps: IN VREF Sense: 0x7fff hdac0: nid 25 0x612140f0 as 15 seq 0Headphones None jack 1 loc 33 color Green misc 0 [DISABLED] hdac0:Caps:OUT Sense: 0x7fff hdac0: nid 26 0x901701f0 as 15 seq 0 Speaker Fixed jack 7 loc 16 color Unknown misc 1 hdac0:Caps:OUTEAPD hdac0: nid 27 0x40f001f0 as 15 seq 0 Other None jack 0 loc 0 color Unknown misc 1 [DISABLED] hdac0:Caps:OUTEAPD hdac0: nid 28 0x40f001f0 as 15 seq 0 Other None jack 0 loc 0 color Unknown misc 1 [DISABLED] hdac0:Caps:OUT hdac0: nid 29 0x90a601f0 as 15 seq 0 Mic Fixed jack 6 loc 16 color Unknown misc 1 hdac0:Caps: IN hdac0: NumGPIO=4 NumGPO=0 NumGPI=0 GPIWake=0 GPIUnsol=1 hdac0: GPIO: data=0x enable=0x direction=0x hdac0: wake=0x unsol=0xsticky=0x R's, John ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Look at /dev and see if you have multiple /dev/mixer* devices. You can use the -f option for mixer to specify the individual devices. I found that I had to set the controls on the devices that I wasn't even using. In my case, it went from almost completely muted to too loud and was distorting, so I had to reduce some of the settings. You can use sysctl hw.snd.default_unit=1' to set the default mixer device to 1 or whichever you want to use. -- Carl Johnsonca...@peak.org ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
