I am running Solaris 10 u5 on a 64-bit AMD, and I have an Azalia sound card
I have installed the driver oss-solaris-v4.1-rc2-i386.pkg (successfully). After reboot, when I run osstest, I only get sound for /dev/oss/oss_hdaudio0/pcm4 (although actually, it says OK everywhere).
And unfortunately, I get no sound anywhere else: for instance, if I try to play something from deezer: no sound at all, if I play a YouTube video: no sound, the GNOME applet tells me "no audio device couldn't open mixer /dev/audioctl".
I also tried the driver oss-solaris-v4.0-1016-i386.pkg. This one produces good sound again for pcm4, and horrible sound (interferences, low volume) for all other.
Also, I think I tried a former OSS driver (maybe 6 months ago ?), and managed to get it work, but unfortunately I haven't kept that version. Is this a regression ?
So, could somebody help me out get this working ? perhaps specify someway to use pcm4 ? or would someone have an old version pointer ?
Best regards,
Axelle
