>Description:
You could formerly set the volume of your audio device by doing
audioctl -w play.gain=160
but this no longer works. The sound plays just fine, though.
In fact, none of the audioctl or mixerctl vars seem to work.

>How-To-Repeat:
p3 root@beefcake: /usr/local/home/dogcow 2506 % audioctl -w play.gain=190
play.gain: -> 127
p3 root@beefcake: /usr/local/home/dogcow 2507 % audioctl -a | grep play.gain
play.gain=127
>Fix:
        
unknown. None of the audioctl vars seem settable now.
