Enlarging the DMA buffer will improve sound quality. Try adding 

hint.pcm.0.buffersize="16384"

to /boot/device.hints (the standard buffer sice is 4096 bytes).

I haven't mentioned my audio card because this topic continues a recent
discussion in the mailing list about the oss driver. The snd_ich driver
works but the output from it is kind of miserable and I was hoping that
the oss driver could help me. I have the Realtek ALC650 on board Nvidia
2( Epox 8RDA+ Pro) .

More details would be nice.  "the driver" and "my audio" should have
been "the snd_ich driver" and "something that I can't guess because you
didn't tell us".  Luckily you mentioned nforce later on.

Run pciconf -lv, find your card, try adding the chip ID to the list of
supported IDs in /sys/dev/sound/pci/ich.c .  If it works, send a PR
with the patch.  Examples:

OSS driver

2005-01-30 Thread Bozhidar Batsov
I'm desperate. The driver that is supposed to autodetect my audio doen't
even has it in its list of recognized devices. The list I got after
installing the oss was far shorter than the one on the site and lacked
support for nforce.I doubt that only linux users are blessed with
support from opensound, at leat because of the fact that nvidia provides
their own audio driver for that platform. Can anybody give me a hint how
should I proceed with opensound?

You can try:

echo snd_driver="YES" >> /boot/loader.conf
echo hw.snd.pcm0.vchans=4 >> /etc/sysctl.conf
echo hw.snd.maxautovchans=4 >> /etc/sysctl.conf

OSS Driver probles resolved

2004-10-15 Thread Spiral Eyed Girl
Hello again, I seemed to have fixed the soundcard to be able to use OSS 
while in KDE. Incase anyone is curious, this is what I did

boot up
#kldload snd_driver
#sysctl hw.snd.pcm0.vchans=4
#sysctl hw.snd.maxautovchans=4
I guess I should have read the FreeBSD docs a little more before I asked for 
help *emberassed*

Final question: How do I make it so booting up automatically does those 
commands?
