Audigy Platinum FR/FL speakers not working

I'm running the beta driver 2.8. on Windows 7 Ult x64 using a 5. set of Altec Lansing 25 speakers. These work great with my onboard sound on another pc but I can't get the Front Right/Left speakers to work with the Audigy. I get RR/RL,Sub & Center. No matter which set of jacks I plug into I can't get the FR/FL speakers to work. I've gone through the CL Audio Console to configure the speakers and it's set to 5.. Windows is configured for 5. sound.
Specs:?
Windows 7 Ult x64
Tyan Thunder K8HM
?Dual AMD Opteron 850 dual core
4G Ram
320G SATA HDD
Altec Lansing 25 5. speakers

it sounds to me like you have your matrix button pushed in. This button will try to make sound come out of all speakers. If it is depressed and you are testing a five to 1 sound, it will not play through the center channel. I have an old set of logitech speakers and with the matrix button pressed in, I get no center channel because it is trying to upsample stereo to all five speakers. Try that please.
Thanks

  • Internal speakers not working after upgrading to Maverics

    internal speakers not working after upgrading to Maverics

    There are many possible causes for this issue. Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried.
    1. Start with the steps recommended in this support article. Don't skip any of the steps. It's the starting point for further efforts to solve the problem.
    2. Run Software Update and make sure you have a fully up-to-date installation of OS X.
    3. If you've installed an application called "Memory Clean" or any other third-party software that is supposed to "clean" or "purge" memory automatically, remove it according to the developer's instructions and restart. You should do that even if the software is not causing the problem, because it's useless.
    4. If you've installed a software equalizer called "Boom" or anything similar, update or delete it and restart.
    5. If an AirPlay device is selected for sound output from iTunes (or from other applications via third-party software such as "Airfoil"), deselect it.
    6. Launch the application "Audio MIDI Setup" by entering the first few letters of its name in a Spotlight search and selecting it in the results (it should be at the top.) Select the Output tab. If the Mute boxes are checked, uncheck them. Move the Volume sliders all the way to the right.
    7. If a red light is coming from the audio-out port, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a mini-stereo jack of the proper size. Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by your warranty.
    If there's no red light, the switch may still be stuck in the headphone position. Try to free it the same way.
    8. Disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard and mouse, if applicable. If more than one display is connected, disconnect all extra ones. Restart and test.
    9. If you have a MacBook Air, turn off Bluetooth and restart.
    10. Start up in safe mode. Don't log in; just restart as usual when the login screen appears. When you do, make sure the words "Safe Boot" do not appear in the login screen. If they do, the system is still in safe mode and sound won't work.
    11. Reset the NVRAM.
    12. Reset the SMC.
    13. Reinstall OS X after backing up all data.
    14. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.

  • When I unplug Apple headphones from my MacBook Pro sond from internal speakers not work, and system soud preferences displayed: Output: optical digital out port only

    When I unplug Apple headphones from my MacBook Pro sond from internal speakers not work, and system soud preferences displayed: Output: optical digital out port only

    If you see a red light in the audio output port, then the internal switch is stuck.  Insert the earphone plug a few times and see if you can trip the switch.  If that fails, insert a cocktail stirrer and the like and jiggle it around inside.  If that fails, take it to an Apple store and have the technicians at the genius bar do it for you.

  • Built-in speakers not working

    Please help;
    Built-in speakers not working after using audio port to run remote speakers.
    I tried using the FAQ in iTunes to solve problem. Built-in speakers will not play sound.
    Under system prefs., sound, the device shows; Digital Out under port; Built-in Output
    Under settings for the selected device;
    The selected device has no outpt controls.
    When I adjust volume the sound level meter shows level on high but cancelled out (circle w/ slash).
    I notice RED LIGHT from inside sound port. Sound works when headphone are plugged in but not external speakers.
    thank you for any advise.

  • TS1574 optic digital port can't be shut off and the sound of speakers not working! what to do?

    optic digital port can't be shut off and the sound of speakers not working! what to do?
    this happened after taking out the head-phones. Now even after pressing CMD+ALT+P+R when booting - the sound of booting appeares BUT after the desktop is ready the sound doesn't work and sound buttons show the sign "circle with crossed line"

    If there is a red light visible in the audio output port, the switch id stuck.  Insert the earphone jack a few times.  If that fails to trip the switch, try a toothpick or similar device and jiggle it inside the port.  If that fails, try a shot or two of compressed air.  If still no success, go to a repair facility.
    Ciao.

    Have you tried the basics?  restart, reset, restore.
    If you have tried all of the above then make an appointment at the local genius bar.

  • Speakers not work

    I am not even sure where to start...
    My Sound Blaster Audigy Platinum is not working anymore.
    I even bought a new volume control.
    No sound....cept a whisper...and only ifvolume control is turned a half up.
    I have installed new drivers and still nothing.
    I can plug a pair of speakers into the speaker hole on back and get 2 to work but not the whole 6 speaker set I have.
    Any ideas...cept buying new?

    im sure you know this but check connections and im not sure but i think its either the windows volume controll or the softwares settings. try to change some setting around thats what i did i changed a default setting and it worked fine till last night due to vanishing drivers that dont want to be put back

  • Right speakers not work

    I just bought a Creative Audigy SE soundcard and Philips 5: speakers. I've installed the drivers from the CD.
    I have a problem, I can only hear music from my Left speakers. That is only from my Front-Left, Centre and Surround-Left speakers.
    I've tried changing the EAX setting but this doesn't solve my problem.
    I can only here a small hissy noise from the other speakers which are not "working". (Front-right and Surround-right)
    Does anyone have any suggestion on how to get audio from the right side and the left?
    I repeat, I have viewed the sticky thread, it doesn't solve my problem.

    You should try to reset XFi Hardware by pressing the "Standard" Button in Modus Console.
    I had a similar problem with XFi, strange thing is that it stayed even after rebooting system. Only resetting XFi like described above worked for me.
    Please post, if this tip solve your problem too.

  • SB Audigy Platinum Drive (Face Plate) Not Respond

    Thats about it.... the MIC IN 2 / LINE IN 2 and Headphone jacks are not working.
    They no longer even show up in the Volume Control Panel. I just reinstalled the
    drivers, but still nothing..... HELP !!!
    The sound works perfect otherwise.... it just front panel.

    Obviously the first thing to check is the connections, as that's probably the problem. Make sure you're using the IDE-ish cable that CAME WITH the unit for the connection to/from the faceplate AD-EXT port, plus make sure you have it plugged into the power supply. If I remember correctly it needs a floppy dri've power supply. How many cables do you have coming from the dri've? Do you have a ZS Platinum?

  • Speakers not working on brand new pavillion dv6. headphones work fine

    I've just taken this Pavillion DV6 PC out of the box and the speakers are not working.   Windows 7.   Sound is fine when I plug headphones in.

    Hi,
    Try using Recovery Manager to reinstall your Audio Driver ( probably IDT ) - the procedure for using recovery manager to reinstall Software and Drivers is detailed in the relevant document on the link below.
    Recovery Manager - Windows 7
    When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices.  Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio through the speakers.
    If you still have no sound, I would return the unit and get it replaced - you shouldn't have to be troubleshooting a brand new machine.

  • MacBook Pro speakers not working.

    I was using my (mid-2010) MacBook Pro running Lion and then started watching a video and suddenly the internal speakers stopped working. There was no red light coming from the headphones jack. The volume was not muted. I tried plugging headphones in and even that wasn't working. I can adjust the volume but the speakers or headphones don't work. The headphones are working, I'm certain of that.
    What should I do?

    Thanks Dave, but I already figured it out.
    I feel like such an idiot for not trying to reboot the computer. *facepalm*

  • External Speakers Not Working with Snow Leopard

    I installed Snow Leopard. Prior to the installation my external speakers, plugged into the headphone jack, worked great. Now, after installing SL, my external speakers and my headphones will not work. Any ideas?

    I don't know what the issue was. I muted and then took mute off, still no external speakers or headphones. So, I just restarted. I guess whatever the problem was just fixed itself. Now I have external speakers and headphones.
