--- Comment #4 from vermaden at interia.pl ---
Some input from from FreeBSD Forums:
And sideeffects is here, as I suspected - after I installed pulseaudio (and
updated recently to the version 10) - as dependency by Chrome, sound is
crippled/choppy completely from chromium, from firefox too, because firefox
starts using pulseaudio dynamicaly (maybe pulse is interfering with OSS in some
way). When I need to switch sound output, I need to switch it in OSS (for some
apps) and also in pulse (for other apps). I also need to read extra long wiki
pages (+ Arch linux wiki pages) about PulseProblem 10.0, google like a maniac
and hope, that my sound will be OK and properly configured somewhere in the
future.
Or, of course, I can recompile chrome port every 14 days with bare OSS/ALSA
support only. Or recompile everything other once a month with PulseProblem. Or
throw away PulseProblem + Chrome from my drive. It's good, so many options.

I knew it!
