Haven't tried on x86 recently (not having a working x86 box right now), but I've never gotten the OSS SADA (Sun Audio Device Architecture - the pre-existing audio interface on Solaris) compatibility support to work, even with OSS releases as of a few weeks ago. Until that works, and works well, there's not much point for me, esp. as I've also never gotten the Mute light on my Audigy NX USB(under OSS) to go out, so that although with newer OSS osstest seems to work, you still don't hear anything.

Re: [osol-discuss] No sound with OSS on Solaris 10
Hi, I have experienced problems with OSS which appear to be related to the /dev/audio device which is linked to /devices/pseudo/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:sound,audio. So that applications which /dev/audio do not produce any sound. I used Ogle, Mplayer and XMMS which can be downloaded from blastwave.org. XMMS needs to be configured to use the Sun Audio device and not the OSS device, it will generate an error but play okay. Realplayer and Flash also work without problem.

Re: [osol-discuss] No sound with OSS on Solaris 10
Hi, I also experienced the same problem as "you_nix". I've installed the OSSv4 sucessfully, but still No sound. On issuing 'ossdetect' I can also hear music playing. So I issued 'ossinfo -v' as suggested by you & this happened : === bash-3.2# ossinfo -v Version info: OSS 4.0 (b1013/200802181324) (0x00040003) CDDL Platform: SunOS/i86pc 5.11 snv_79a (Mystery_Machine) Number of audio devices:2 Number of audio engines:10 Number of mixer devices:1 Device objects 0: osscore0 OSS common devices 1: hdaudio0 ATI HD Audio interrupts=4552 (11279) HD Audio controller ATI HD Audio Vendor ID0x1002437b Subvendor ID 0x30b0103c Codec 0: AD1981 (0x11d41981/0x103c30b0) Codec 1: Unknown (0x14f12bfa/0x103c30b0) 2: vmix0 OSS transparent virtual support 3: sadasupport0 SADA compatibility layer Mixer devices 0: High Definition Audio AD1981 (Mixer 0 of device object 1) Device file /dev/oss/hdaudio0/mix0, Legacy device /dev/mixer0 Priority: 10 Caps: Audio devices High Definition Audio play/dev/oss/hdaudio0/pcm0 (device index 0) Legacy device /dev/dsp0 Caps: TRIGGER Modes: OUTPUT Out engine 1: Available for use Out engine 2: Available for use Out engine 3: Available for use Out engine 4: Available for use Out engine 5: Available for use Out engine 6: Available for use Out engine 7: Available for use Out engine 8: Available for use Out engine 9: Available for use High Definition Audio /dev/oss/hdaudio0/pcm1 (device index 1) Legacy device /dev/dsp1 Caps: TRIGGER Modes: OUTPUT Out engine 1: Available for use bash-3.2# === My Config : Solaris Express Developer Edition 1/08 (32 Bit) AMD Sempron 1.6 GHz, 1.5 GB RAM, SoundMAX HD Audio etc. Please suggest some solution.
