AUDIOCFG(1) General Commands Manual AUDIOCFG(1)

NAME

audiocfgconfigure default audio device

SYNOPSIS

audiocfg list

audiocfg default index

audiocfg test index

DESCRIPTION

The audiocfg utility helps maintaining the audio and mixer device symlinks.

Run with “list”, it lists the available audio devices and shows the currently selected default audio device. Called with “test”, it plays a tone of 2 seconds for each channel of the device with the index index. Called with “default”, it sets the default audio device to the one with the index index.

audiocfg needs access to /dev/drvctl and write access to /dev (when used with “default”) to work.
