Resetting the sound system
Dear list, the audio software I use sometimes seems to handle unappropriately its input and leave the sound system in a strange state. When this happens, the lowest frequencies of the played sound are very attenuated and what is still audible sounds unpleasantly metallic. Rebooting the machine immediately brings up the sound system in shape again, but it would be nice if they were a more sensible way to reset it! Here are the relevant lines of `dmesg`: pcm0: VIA VT8237 port 0xe100-0xe1ff irq 22 at device 17.5 on pci0 pcm0: [ITHREAD] pcm0: VIA Technologies VIA1617A AC97 Codec pcm0: VIA DXS Enabled: DXS 4 / SGD 1 / REC 1 Best regards, Michael ___ 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
