Setting this in /boot/loader.conf didn't seem to have any effect:

[root at ds9000 ~]# cat /boot/loader.conf
dev.pcm.0.play.vchans="0"

(reboot)

[root at ds9000 ~]# sysctl dev.pcm.0.play
dev.pcm.0.play.vchans: 1

However, I was able to set it via sysctl (is this the same?):

[root at ds9000 ~]# sysctl dev.pcm.0.play.vchans="0"
dev.pcm.0.play.vchans: 1 -> 0

There isn't any sound either, but the logged message changes:

pcm0:play:dsp0.p0: play interrupt timeout, channel dead


Thanks
