Audigy SE sound randomly stop

So I got this card and installed it and the drivers and everything worked swimmingly. Then, all of a sudden, my sound just stops working. Seriously - just stopped. I immediately checked to see if i muted anything or any of that jazz, and nothing was muted. I ran the diagnostics test and and said everything was fine! I un-installed and re-installed the drivers - didn't help. I "repaired" the drivers - nada. Then during one of my reboots I got the blue screen of death! Cool. I restarted again and windows successfully loaded so i decided to disable the Sound Blaster card and go back to my onboard sound - just to make sure THAT, atleast, works. It worked fine, and so i decided to enable sound blaster - disable onboard - and reinstall the drivers. And that didn't work.
I've contacted tech support but apparently that takes a hot 24 hours and I'd like to return this card TODAY if it's defecti've...

$ Did you get a solution on this issue, I'm having the same, even formated/reimaged from XP to SEVEN, and it worked at the beggining of the installation, it has stopped working just now. The weird thing is that it sounds perfectly in my linux install :angry: ... I only use windows for sound/related task, I'm a musician.

Sound randomly stops and starts

Hello,
Over 2 days, as I watch Netflix, or listen to music on other apps, my sound randomly stops and starts. I have no control of it. I do not have to touch my ipod when this happens, it does this on its own. On for 20 min, off for 5 min, on for 5, off for 2, on for 1 min, off for 15 min. It ossolates randomly through time.
I hard reboot, but this works or does not work (for a while). Any ideas?

Sound randomly stops working in Windows 8

I have a new HP PC and the sound randomly stops working. When the sound stops, it stops in all applications: iTunes, Web Browser, etc.
PC DETAILS:
HP Omni 27 all-in-one desktop
Windows 8 Pro
In Device Manager, under Sound, this is what I have:
- AVerMedia H334 MiniCard Hybrid ATSC/QAM
- Bluetooth Audio Device
- IDT High Definition Audio CODEC
I just set up this new pc this week and I have run all the windows and drivers updates so everything is up to date.
When I boot up the pc, the sound works fine for a while and then randomly stops working. For example, if I play music in iTunes 11, the latest version, it may play for 1 minute or it may play for 10 minutes and then it just randomly stops playing sound and the sound will not come back until I reboot and the same thing happens all over again.
I have searched this online and I found quite a few people posting similar sound issues with Windows 8, but I have not found a fix for this problem yet. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sound randomly stops working on Iphone 5c

The sound randomly will stop working. (ringers, audio, etc.) I have had this phone for one day.
Oddly enough, the same thing was going on with my iphone 5 which is a big reason I went and upgraded, now i am just very aggravated!
Anyone know what could be going on??

I have the same problem with my new 5c, seemingly carried over from when I upgraded from my old 3s that had the same problem - all sounds randomly stop working (although vibrate seems to still work) and then randomly start working again.
When you set up your new phone did you 'restore' from your old phone's back-up or set it up completely like a new phone? I did the former so I assume whatever the 'glitch' is, it may be something to do with that.
I called 1-800-MYIPHONE and was advised to do a hard reset - I questioned the point of that when I effectively started from scratch with my new phone only a few weeks ago (well, when I say from scratch I of course mean I 'restored' from my old phone's back-up so that all my stuff would carry over...), plus given the coincidence of having the same problem on my old phone... Next guidance was to restore the phone to factory settings and start over from 'new phone' status, which I did this afternoon... so far so good but we shall see. Here's a link to the guide on how to do it if you want to give it a whirl:

K8t800 onboard sound randomly stops until restart

my onboard sound seems to randomly stop working at times.
my 5.1 speakers have a power/volume knob that clicks the power off when you turn the knob all the way down.
the only consistency i've found is that sometimes i'll turn the volume all the way down, but stop before actually turning the speakers off.
then i'll go away for a while and come back to a computer with absolutely no audio.
i don't think the problem is with the speakers, because i can reboot and my sound comes back. i've also tried cycling power on the speakers via the power switch and also unplugging the whole system.
i've never been listening to music and then had the sound go out. it only happens when i leave the computer for a while and then come back.
my only guess is the gnomes that live under my desk are playing tricks on me.

I consulted my grandmother on this one. She said the gnomes could be unhappy. U need to leave some oatmeal on the floor for them to eat. This could make them stop sabotaging ur computer
Anywayz,
I do think it is ur sound system. My subwoofer turns off when I don't use it, or when the sound is very faint.
It switches itself on again when it is feeded louder sounds.
Subwoofers use power doing nothing, so I gues it is a usefull feature.

Trash sounds randomly stops working in Mountain Lion

I noticed that the trash sounds (putting a file in the trash, emptying the trash) will randomly stop working. A restart usually fixes this but at some point it will randomly stop working again.
Any solutions?

Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go To Folder
Type or copy / paste: ~/Library/Preferences
Click Go then move the com.apple.dock.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash.
See if that made a difference...

My sound randomly stopped working on my ipad how do i fix it?, my sound randomly stopped working on my ipad how do i fix it?

well my sound randomly one day stopped working how do i fix it so my sound will be ok again?

I would start by checking the mute button on the side of the iPad to make sure that this has not accidentally gotten switched. Then go into settings> general>sounds and make sure that everything is on, etc.
It would be helpful to know if the sound isn't working constantly and for every purpose or only in certain circumstances.

Sounds randomly stopping

Hi,
I have an odd problem with my iphone. Quite often, and for no apparent reason, my sounds will stop working. That is, lock and unlock click, typing clicks, text message tone. The only thing that works is incoming call ringtone and music and videos.
I seem to be able to fix the problem either with a reset, or by entering the sound settings and playing my ringtone, but the sounds cease again soon after. Anyone know why this could be?
Thanks

Same problem here... click sounds, etc... stopped working. I can play itunes and go to settings and play my ring tones but when someone calls... no ring tones and all the little clicks have stopped after updating to the newest software.... 3.1.2

Web player randomly cut off sound and stop playing after about 5 seconds.

My web player cut off the sound and stops after about 5 seconds. The only way to get it to work again without refreshing the page it to select a different time periode in the time bar. Also it happens more often at the first 25% of the movie.
I am using safari with add block on a Macbook pro retina (if this helps with the issue).
What can I do to solve this.

I suspect you are running into the following bug:

BB Curve 8900 - randomly stops receiving emails and requires battery pull

I'm a newb to BB and this forum has helped a lot but my BB Curve 8900 randomly stops receiving emails about every 2 days and requires a battery pull to correct.
When it stops receiving emails and I go to the browser, it is also unable to connect. I basically lose all connection to data. I can receive calls and sms.
Turning unit off and on does not help.
I need to do a battery pull. Then starts working fine right away.
I'm with Rogers in Canada
Is there a fix for this? Could I possibly have a bad phone? Battery pull once is a while is fine but to need to do that every 2 days is not.

Something similar happens to me. I have to keep resending the service books and then it works fine, try this, at least it will stop you keep doing a hard reset. I have read somewhere else that this can be influenced by having your phone to turn off at night etc. So for now I have turned this feature off. I can actually receive emails via wifi and the failure is only on GPRS. It sounds a bit strange but I am also becoming convinced that it only occurs when I leave home, go somewhere else and then come back.
Read this below. I did do all this but it hasnt worked for me, may help you though

External Speakers Randomly Stop Working until I "Test" or Disable/Enable

I'm using a HP Pavillion DV6 Notebook PC Running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit SP1.
External speakers randomly stop working until I "test" or disable/enable them. Headphone/HDMI Audio Works.
Background
-Recently had to do a clean install of windows.
-Went to the HP Drivers Website and downloaded all of the latest drivers.
-I installed several other programs as well (Flash, Steam, Media Player, Browser)
-The problem started
Current Settings
-My deafult device is "Speakers and Headphones: IDT High Definition Audio CODEC"
-Enhancements are disabled
-Bass and Treble are set to 4
-Format is set to 16 bit, 48000 Hz (DVD Quality)
-Allowing applications to take exclusive control of the device or not doesn't make a difference (but it's currently off)
Troubleshooting
-The audio works by plugging in headphones or using an HDMI device
-The audio comes back if I go to my sound settings and hit "Test", or if I disable and re-enable the device
Error Messages
-Youtube starts the video for 3 seconds, restarts and sputters a bit, and then says that there was an error
-My media player (MusicBee) gives me this message: "Unable to start playback (Error = BASS_ERROR_BUFLOST)"
That's everything I can think of. Any ideas?

Hi TheBigBoy,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I see that you are having a frustrating time with the sound to your external speakers. Have you tried connecting the speakers to another computer to see if is a hardware issue with the speakers? Do the regular speakers work? What is your product number as there are several models in the dv6 series?

It was working fine until a few weeks ago. Then one day suddenly it didnt work. and itl randomly start working again.
One way that it got fixed one time was when i plugged in an external mic i borrowed from a friend and unplugged. after that my integrated mic started working again. the next day it stopped working again.
I have tried everything possible to try and fix it.
- Went to sound disabled/enabled it.
- uninstalled/reinstalled the drivers.
- installed other drivers such as realtek
- used the windows microphone troubleshoot.
- tried configuring the microphone.
- even tried system restore, but i only had like 2 restore points since my laptop is relatively new
Nothing has worked. Can someone please come up with an actual solution to my problem?
