audiocfg list
audiocfg default [index]
audiocfg test [index]
'list' shows the available audio devices, 'default' sets the default
audio device, and 'test' will play a tone for 2 seconds on each
channel. example:
$ ./audiocfg list
0: [*] audio0: ICH2 AC97 (2 playback channels)
1: [ ] audio1: Pseudo Audio (2 playback channels)
$ ./audiocfg test 0
testing channel 0...
testing channel 1...
$
that it's easy to change the "default" audio device. eg:
# audiocfg
0: [*] audio0: HD Audio
1: [ ] audio1: HD Audio
2: [ ] audio2: Pseudo Audio
# audiocfg 1
setting default audio device to audio1
# audiocfg
0: [ ] audio0: HD Audio
1: [*] audio1: HD Audio
2: [ ] audio2: Pseudo Audio

(there's a separate patch in the works to give "HD Audio" a better name.)
this is not enabled yet, but will be soon.
it also needs a manual page. any takers?
