Hi,

I've fetched "sndkld_releng6_i386_giant_eradication.tar.gz 2007-Jun-15
23:59:16 426.4K application/x-gzip" from
http://people.freebsd.org/~ariff/BINARY_MODULES/ . I'm using sound.ko
and snd_via8233.ko.
There is something strange with this test (or maybe this sysctls are not
supposed to matter anymore):

# sysctl -a | grep vchan
hw.snd.maxautovchans: 0
dev.pcm.0.play.vchans: 0
dev.pcm.0.rec.vchans: 0

I've also tried different values as well. For example 1 (just in case 0 is
unlimited vchans).

I
open TeamSpeak and Enemy Territory at the same time and they both work.  I've
additionaly ran amarok and played some mp3 at the same time. Everything
works at the same time.
