I was wondering if anyone has had success with the 'Sound Blaster Live! 24-bit External' USB Audio card, I have managed to get it initialising but i can't get it to produce sound. I have produced a custom kernel with Ariff Abdullah's patch for RELEASE 6.0 to the /usr/src and used: device sound # Loads generic sound for headers device snd_uaudio # Loads USB audio in the kernel config.

cat /dev/sndstat: FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Installed devices: pcm0: <USB Audio> at ? (1p/1r/0v channels duplex default)

Try to increase the number of virtual channels, e.g. "sysctl hw.snd.maxautovchans=3".

Try to mute the device and then unmute it again (at least the GNOME panel applet is able to mute/unmute a device, and I have to do the same in Windows too when I want to use my uaudio device).

Bye, Alexander.
