Hi. Thanks for your hard work with sound subsystem including virtual_oss.
But shouldn't ports commit 9b26d309123abf0e90651298b131783ba7d9b945 reverted or re-targetting to 16 until MFC of base virtual_oss into stable/15 is finished? Yes, we can lock audio/virtual_oss, though, but possibly some people overlook it. Regards.
