  • xmmix

    From Aelius Gallus@21:1/5 to All on Mon Sep 25 23:23:28 2023
    I have just installed it using pkgin, but it doesn't work.
    Trying to start it, I get the following message,

    $ xmmix

    FIOASYNC ioctl failed: Invalid argument

    Any suggestion to correct it, will be appreciated.

    I had to look up xmmix, more info would be helpful :)

    You do not state how you are using it, bluetooth, direct,
    whatever and the hardware. NetBSD can be on many types
    of hardware. But if bluetooth I doubt I can help.

    I would suggest you review:

    http://netbsd.org/docs/guide/en/chap-audio.html

    and maybe

    https://www.netbsd.org/docs/guide/en/chap-bluetooth.html

    Thank you for your replies. I decided to control the audio volume
    by using the mixerctl command, instead of xmmix. Thank you once
    again.

    You don't have to, NetBSD has a built-in curses UI to manage the sound subsystem and the in-kernel mixer. It's called `aiomixer'; see
    aiomixer(1).
    If you're on NetBSD 8.x/9.x, then you can find in in packages at audio/aiomixer.

    I didn't know about aiomixer and didn't installed it. After
    installation it is working like a charm. Thank you for sharing your
    knowledge.
