Sound disappears when changing speaker config

Hello all, I currently have a bit of an annoying issue when using my x-fi titanium card in vista 64 bit.
When I goto change my speaker config from headphones to 5.1 or vice versa, the sound from the running apps disappears
and I have to restart the applications for sound to come back. For example I am playing a song in winamp, i change speaker config
from 5.1 to headphones, sound gone, close winamp and reopen sound is back. Same thing goes for my games.
Any possible solutions to this thanks.

The only thing I don't like about the iPhone headset solution is that the earplugs are uncomfortable, and keep falling out. I basically don't like things stuck in my ear. So I am thinking of buying an actual over-the-ears headset to plug in to the headset port.
A couple of questions:
- Is there any reason at all to go USB headset instead? It seems like a waste of a USB port since there is a headset jack.
- Is there any way of switching the output sound back to the speakers while the headset is plugged in? Or do I have to physically unplug it each time it is not in use for a Skype call (which is the only time I would use it)?
Thanks,
doug

  • Video tracks disappear when changing between sequences in premiere CS6

    Dear people, can you please help me find out why video tracks disappear when changing between sequences in premiere CS6.
    All it shows is the audio track and it is maximized to the first frame of the sequence. Video tracks are there but hidden - although video IS showing up in the program monitor.
    When I pull the tracks down in the timeline window using the dividing line between the video and audio tracks and set the sequence work area back it works fine, however it is a great annoyance having to do this every time when i swap between sequences.
    Can anybody please suggest a solution to this?
    I'd appreciate any help.

    This is the audio tracks problem i cannot overcome:
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1586025
    (basically every type of audio i drop/place onto the timeline becomes left channel only, regardless of it being music or camera-recorded audio.
    In the source monitor everything plays back just fine, but when placed to the timeline - it becomes LEFT only.
    Weird.... (or am I and not it)

  • Why is the sound disappearing when I send a video?

    I have an iPhone 5C.  When I record a video and send it, the sound disappears!  I can hear it just fine when I play the video back on my phone, but if I send the video to someone, they can't hear it.  Why is this happening?  I tested it by sending it to my email, and sure enough, the sound is gone!  Am I doing something wrong when I send it, or is there a setting that is off somewhere that I need to adjust?

    I can't even see where that setting is.. for my information all the footage is from a GoPro so what I've had to do is convert them to .mov and Apple ProRes 422 now. Now when I have them in final cut the samples in 'All Clips' and in the time line look ok in till I hover over them and then they have the red hint again, they do how ever export the right colour now but this is going to make colour correction difficult

  • Headphone sound only when changing level or balance

    Hi,
    I have a weird problem with my Logitech B530 USB headset.
    I have configured it as the main input and output device in system settings, but I only hear sounds when changing sound level or balance. So if I e.g. start some music in iTunes I hear nothing, if I then increase/decrease the volume I hear the song, but the sound quickly fades away and there is no sound again. The same thing happens if I change the device balance.
    Has anyone experienced anything similar and/or have any idea how to fix this?
    Thanks,
    Mads

    = Yes it came pre-installed,? it's an x-fi xtreme music, is there any other way to find the exact model? Im pretty sure my card is upside down so It would? be impossible to read the serial number which is on the bottom. It doesn't seem to be a hardware issue at all, it seems to be a software [email protected]

  • Popping sound soundbar when changing channels

    I recently purchased a soundbar to go with my HDTV set. Experience popping when changing channels or when changing settings in the DVR. Manufacturer of the soundbar says that I must match the STB (Motorola 7232) audio settings with the TV's which is Force or LPCM and turn off Dolby Digital. However, I cannot find these settings.
    Take the soundbar out of the mix and the TV does not experience any popping. This tells me that this cannot be the STB but the manufacturer says it is. Any help with audio on FiOS TV would be greatly appreciated.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Let us know if you find the menu. The tricky thing is that you have to power it off from the front display and then do ok menu using the remote. It took ne a couple times to get there with the new box. Best of luck.

  • Sound disappears when dropping clip to sequence timeline

    I have a quicktime clip that plays without problems when in the viewer window. I edit the clip as desired and then place the clip in the sequence timeline. When I try to view the clip, the sound is gone, replaced by a regularly pulsing beep. When I first opened the project and added the clip I got the warning stating my project settings didn't match the clip settings and accepted FC Pro's suggestion to change my project to match the clip. This is the only clip I'm working with. How can I get my sound working correctly?

    Rendering doesn't solve the underlying problem. Your audio is not in a standard editing format (perhaps it is mp3?) which can cause you problems down the line.
    The audio in FCP (with rare exceptions) should be aiff/ 48khz/16 bit. Other formats, sample rates, etc lead to drifting out of sync, pops and other really annoying anomalies.
    good luck,

  • Loss of sound effect when changing volume.

    Hi there,
    I have just purchased a Macbook Pro and everything was going well until I noticed that when I changed the volume using the F11 and F12 keys, the sound effect would no longer be produced. I have been through Sounds in System Preferences and checked all the settings are correct, even the 'play feedback when volume is changed' option is checked. All I have been doing so far is using iTunes and using the internet. I also loaded djay but I don't think this would have anything to do with it. Please help.

    iCloud only keeps photo stream photos for 30 days, even though up to 1000 photos will remain on your devices until deleted.  When you re-enabled photo stream you only received photo stream photos from the last 30 days as older photos are no longer in iCloud.
    To change your iCloud ID, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
    However, to avoid losing photo stream photos, before deleting the account save them to your camera roll (if not already there).  To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.  Be sure to do this on your other devices first.
    To get the missing photos back on your iPod, create a shared photo stream that includes them on one of your other devices and invite yourself as a subscriber (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99).

  • Bass-sound disappear when exporting to Adobe Flash Video format

    I'm making a guitar-tutorial on video, and want to export parts of it to Adobe Flash video by using Adobe Media Encoder. But when I do that, it sounds like the bass-sound of the band disappear. The sound generally becomes low also. Maybe there is a connection. Anyway, with the sound I have now, I can't use the video in flash format :-(
    I've tried bitrates of both 128 and 256 kbps, which should be more than plenty.
    Help would be appreciated.

    Umm....I assume you're exporting from FCP using QuickTime conversion,
    so you can choose a QuickTime movie, H.264, and choose
    Frame Rate: Current
    Key Frames: Automatic
    Frame Reordering: Checked
    Quality: Best
    Encoding: Best
    Data Rate: Automatic ... which then means you don't need to choose DVD/CDROM.
    Give that a try and see how it looks.

  • Audigy 2 ZS - Stereo Sound Only When Testing Speaker Setti

    I am running Windows XP SP2 and have a Logitech Z-5500 hooked up through a co-ax connection. I had?no sound problems until I?ran Creative Auto Update and updated the recommended software (Creative Media Source Player 5.0.38 and driver version 5.2.4.96) yesterday. While I am still able to hear?5. channel DVD's through all my speakers, when I run the Creative Speaker settings software, I only hear sound from my front left and right speakers.
    I only get sound through the centre channel when watching TV, which?echoes. ?I tried running system restore to get back to my previous drivers, but the system was unable to restore itself. Any help would be appreciated.

    Forgot to add, all of my speakers are in working order, I have individually tested them. I have set my 7.1 system up before in my old apartment, it's just not working this time. Thanks again.

  • Manually Added Adhoc Approvers disappears when change the Schopping Cart

    Hi All,
       We are facing a problem in the Shopping Cart , whenever we are login in to the change mode of check status the manually added approver get disappears.Any point on this will be highly appreciated.
    Regards,
    Mahesh Mohan D

    Hi,
    We are manually adding the users , the system is not determining the approvers for some of the cost centers this is basically for giving the option for user to select his/her approver . Here we are manually adding the two levels of approvers .
    For the manual approval case we are using Adhoc-Approval workflow.
    We have a scenario for a particular account assignment category, the approvers are not determined through the n-step approval badi but are added manually in the approval preview.
    In the case when requisitioner changes any data in the shopping cart which is in awaiting approval or which is rejected by any approver and present in requesitioner inbox, the manually added approvers are disappeared and no approvers are displayed in the approval preview and when the workflow is retriggered with no approvers.
    Is there anyway we can store the manually added approvers in the case when the requisitioner changes the cart.
    Thanks And Regards

  • Thumbnails disappear when change to any folder

    In Photoshop CS2 when I first start Bridge (CS2 1.0.4.6) my thumbnails show up fine for the Desktop. As soon as I change to any folder the thumbnails turn all white. No matter what folder I change to they are all white, and the number of thumbnails stays the same regardless of how many images are in the folder.
    When I return to the Desktop folder, all the thumbnails are white. If I close Bridge and reopen, the Desktop thumbnails reappear until I change folders again.
    Can anyone help - my Bridge is definitely broken.

    1.  Do you have adequate cache space?  Is it on C drive, or a dedicated drive or partition?  If it is nearly full that could cause problems.
            - 35 GB available on C: using a centralized cache in default location
    2.  Compact the cache.  That will get rid of all unmached files and thumbnails, and reduce its size.
            - I have no option in Bridge to compact the cache that I can find - either in the preferences or from the cache menu (I am using Bridge CS2 with Photoshop CS2)
    3.  Delete temp file with a product like cclean
            - What temp file? I have used CCleaner on numerrous occassions for cleaning up but only recall some files located in a   \CameraRaw\cache location
    4. Go to a folder that has problems.  Then go to Tools/cache/purge cache for xxx folder
            - Did this many times - does not fix problem.
    5. Close program then restart and see if problems are still there in xxx folder
             - same as #4 - opened and closed Bridge and Photoshop many times trying to purge and rebuild. still broken.
    6.  Open Windows Explorer and look at thumbnails.  Look at contents of each folder closely and see if any do not have a thumbnail.  That would indicate you have corrupted files there or bad suffix.  Figure out what it is and fix or delete
         - The files are all okay - Windows Explorer displays thumbnails and I have no problem using Adobe Lightroom and working on any of the files.

  • Imported text formatting disappearing when changing font in character palette.

    Something seems to have changed with my InDesign, and I'm not sure why. Here is what I used to be able to do.
    I could import a word doc into a text box. This text would have bold, regular, italics fonts. I would select the text box, then change the font using the character palette by just changing the top font box. For example, if the font imported in as Helvetica but I wanted it all to be Futura, I would select the box and then just type Futura and all of the Helvetica bolds would become Futura Bold, and the Helvetica Italic would become Futura Italic, etc. I didn't have to select each line.
    Now if I try to do that same thing, when I select Futura, it just changes ALL the text to Futura Regular. I lose all previous formatting that was imported in from the word doc.
    I hope this makes sense.
    How can I go back to the way it was?
    PLEASE HELP! This is maddening! Not a big deal for a single flyer design but when laying out a book, this could add DAYS to the project.
    thanks!

    I believe the issue lies in the font palette. Here is what I used to do.
    - New document.
    - Create text box.
    - Select text box.
    - CMD + D
    - Select word doc
    - Text is imported with bolds, italics, etc.
    At this point, let's say I want font to be Myriad Pro...but I want the bold to remain bold and italic to remain italic.
    - Select text box.
    - Type font name into font palette (No dropdown or popup menu used to appear, now it does). Used to just type Myriad Pro then hit return.
    - Font in text would retain bolds and italics and become Myriad Pro. So if a line in the text imported as Helvetica Bold, it would now be Myriad Pro Bold.
    Now when I do this, it just changed ALL of the text to ONE font. If I type in Myriad Pro, a drop-down menu appears and automatically selects Myriad Pro Condensed.
    I hope that helps. I know I'm not crazy. This is what I have done forever. I use InDesign every day...and have for years. I rebooted my mac two days ago and this problem appeared. It seemed like some sort of awful update. haha. When I rebooted, I lost all of my preferences. InDesign went back to points and picas instead of inches. Smart guides appeared, I had to turn those off again. Stuff like that.
    Any thoughts?

  • HT203521 Calendar events disappearing when changing Apple ID

    My wife changed her AppleID, and her Calendar events have disappeared from her iCloud account (even though the prompt said they'd be merged).
    Her contacts, notes and other iCloud info all seem to still be there. The problem persists across the entire iCloud platform (iOS, OSX, web).
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Well Sir, it depends. Sometimes it depends on what email those Calendar events are hooked to. So i would suggest you try checking if her Calendar is actually connected to the right platform by going to Settings - Mail, Contacts, Calendars - Scroll down to the bottom under Calendars - Default Calendar - Tap on it to see if its connected to iCloud or a particular email address. You can fuddle with it to see where all her events are saved. Sometimes it might be that, those events were hooked to her email or something. I hope this helps, please keep me posted.
