Hi, I am starting to work on MicroPC as a mobile platform. I managed to boot FreeBSD here, started X, built some ports etc. so it is working quite well for me. Now I decided to try some multimedia - in another words, play some video. For this purpose I built multimedia/mlt7 port and it works nicely, albeit without sound. I am sure it has audio output, see 'pciconf -lv' excerpt: hdac0@pci0:0:14:0: class=0x040300 rev=0x06 hdr=0x00 vendor=0x8086 device=0x3198 subvendor=0x10ec subdevice=0x0000 vendor = 'Intel Corporation' device = 'Celeron/Pentium Silver Processor High Definition Audio' class = multimedia subclass = HDA and in Windows, some sound is played as well. I am not sure about the audio setup - I see some devices in /dev crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 0x25 Mar 12 09:10 midistat crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 0x58 Mar 12 10:10 mixer0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 0x59 Mar 12 10:10 mixer1 crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 0x5a Mar 12 10:10 mixer2 crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 0x27 Mar 12 09:10 music0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 0x26 Mar 12 09:10 sequencer0 I think audio related... I can use mixer: # mixer -f /dev/mixer0 Mixer vol is currently set to 85:85 Mixer pcm is currently set to 100:100 Mixer speaker is currently set to 74:74 Mixer mic is currently set to 67:67 Mixer mix is currently set to 74:74 Mixer rec is currently set to 37:37 Mixer igain is currently set to 0:0 Mixer ogain is currently set to 100:100 Recording source: mic # mixer -f /dev/mixer1 Mixer vol is currently set to 85:85 Mixer pcm is currently set to 100:100 Mixer rec is currently set to 37:37 Mixer igain is currently set to 0:0 Mixer monitor is currently set to 67:67 Recording source: monitor # mixer -f /dev/mixer2 Mixer vol is currently set to 100:100 Mixer pcm is currently set to 100:100 but that's it. No more ideas... well, just some status: # cat /dev/sndstat Installed devices: pcm0: <Realtek ALC269 (Right Analog)> (play/rec) default pcm1: <Realtek ALC269 (Analog)> (play/rec) pcm2: <Intel Gemini Lake (HDMI/DP 8ch)> (play) No devices installed from userspace. Any hints? For now, setting 'sysctl hw.snd.default_unit=2' allows me to play sound via HDMI, but I like to use internal speaker as well (and setting this sysctl to 0 or 1 does not produce sound).
