Turns out blk_ms is 10 for every hw.audio* that exists, on 9.1 on the working hardware and 10.1 on the problematic hardware. There's only the one problematic machine; until we get more (which I'm told should happen soon) it won't be convenient to reboot into 9.1 to test that. Setting blk_ms to 0 doesn't seem to break the working 9.1 machine, at least not in this respect. > i do not know if '0' is a valid setting.. It's accepted by sysctl and, as I remarked above, doesn't seem to break the otherwise working 9.1 machine. (Otherwise working as in the writes to the audio device don't block; I don't know whether it's driving anything out its audio jack - I should probablyu check that.) /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML [email protected] / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
