Sound volume reset issue at either shutdown or boot. #6

Closed globetrotterdk closed 2 years ago

globetrotterdk commented 2 years ago

I am experiencing a problem with having to reset the volume level after every login. I have experienced this issue both from running the latest NomadBSD from a USB pen drive, and now from a system install on a SSD. I am using a Behringer UPHORIA UMC204HD USB sound card as my audio source (pcm4: USB audio*). When using the USB pen drive, the solution (due to the configuration of the drive, with persistence) for me was to remove 'late' from the /var/db line in /etc/fstab. However, that line doesn't exist in /etc/fstab on my current install...

Here is some information: `~> dmesg | grep “audio”

~> cat /dev/sndstat Installed devices: pcm0: <NVIDIA (0x0099) (HDMI/DP 8ch)> (play) pcm1: <NVIDIA (0x0099) (HDMI/DP 8ch)> (play) pcm2: <NVIDIA (0x0099) (HDMI/DP 8ch)> (play) pcm3: <Realtek ALC222 (Analog 2.0+HP/2.0)> (play/rec) pcm4: (play/rec) default No devices installed from userspace.

If the USB sound card driver is loaded via devmatch or dsbdriverd, which happens after /etc/rc.d/mixer is run, the previous volumes can't be restored. Add snd_uaudio_load="YES" to /boot/loader.conf to make sure the device is available when /etc/rc.d/mixer is run.

That seems to have worked. Thanks for the help.
