Secret Agent Man Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 I'm running Windows 7 Pro here. Within the control panel, all speakers (4 + center) and subwoofer work just fine in the test. However, anything outside of the test does not output any sound on either the center speaker or the rear speakers. I'm using this motherboard for sound. Any help?

Pyrion Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Is whatever you're attempting to play audio with actually configured for surround sound output, or just stereo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Secret Agent Man Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 I can't seem to find out whether or not Windows Media Player 11 is configured appropritaely, but surround sound does appear to be working in-game (the important part), so I think I'm okay.

Pyrion Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Even if it's configured to output surround sound, it won't actually output surround sound unless the source file has the appropriate channels. MP3s and the such will remain in stereo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gollgagh Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 There might be an option to force stuff with fewer channels to play out of all speakers, though. My GIGABYTE P35 board does, I know. Look in your audio properties for something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
