Audio problems with the Radeon HD 5870

Hello and sorry for my english, it's not my native language.
I own an early 2009 Mac Pro 2.66 GHz Quad Core (4.1), with OSX 10.8.5, 12 Gb RAM, 512 Gb SSD and Ati Radeon HD 4870 (512 Mb).
I found a good offer for an used original Ati Radeon HD 5870 Mac (1 Gb), so i got it and put it into my Mac Pro (PCI slot 1, both power cables connected and MDP to HDMI cable, as was previously the 4870).
My monitor is a Philips LED TV-Monitor 221TE 21,6".
Besides the fact that i had to recalibrate the monitor (the graphic at first was too "sharp"), i lost the audio from integrated speakers of the monitor (the line-out port is selected, as previously was, in system preferences --> audio), it works only with integrated speaker of Mac Pro.
The monitor is connected with audio cable to the line-out of Mac Pro (i know that my 2009 Mac Pro supply only video signals over Mini DisplayPort).
If i put back the 4870 with same connections, the audio is back from line-out...
If i connect an external speaker to the line-out, it works...
So it's not the line-out to be faulty.
Just to try and waste time, i repaired permissions, reset PRAM, installed and updated OSX to 10.9.5, but nothing worked...
Any idea would be appreciated, thank you.

Thank you all for the answers,
@voidcom: yes, i'm pretty sure it's a genuine Apple Card, not only because assured from the seller, but also because it has 2 MiniDisplayPorts (which, in my knowledge, are present in genuine Apple cards only, PC cards usually have standard HDMI ports).
I'm sure i plugged the audio cable into the right port (the one with the speaker symbol); in my first installation of the card i left it untouched, but the audio worked with the 4870 and not with 5870.
If i plug an headphone in the rear or in the front, i can hear sound... it seems that the installation of the 5870 blocked audio output towards my monitor only... that's the strange thing.
@Grant Bennet-Alder: yes, i fiddled with the controls in System Preferences > Sound, was the first thing i did, but only internal speaker works.
The only thing i didn't try, it's the SMC reset, i'll try it ASAP, thank you.
@DPart: i found the same information searching the web, only Mac Pro 5.1 or flashed 4.1 to 5.1 can output audio via HDMI, thank you anyway.
However, that's not my case... i don't want audio output via HDMI (would be nice, but not essential for me), the installation of the 5870 blocked audio output towards my LED monitor only... with the 4870 worked perfectly instead.
Yes, under PCI section i found the 5870 twice, the first with driver loaded, the second one not.
I searched information about this "ATY,LangurParent" but i found nothing useful:

Problems with the Radeon HD 5870

So I picked up a Radeon HD 5870 to throw into an early 2009 2x2.66 GHz Quad Core Bloomfield MacPro (I know it's officially only sanctioned for the 2010/2011 MacPros, but there's all sorts of threads saying it works fine on the 2008/2009 models). We've been doing some video transcoding of late and the playback has been a little jagged which was what prompted the upgrade.
Had a little trouble getting it to fit into the usual video PCI slot (the one furtherest to the left) so I went with the next slot over. Hooked up the two power cords to the sockets on the mother board and booted up.
I've got two monitors connected to the card -- one, a relatively new 24" Apple Cine and then an older 20" Apple monitor which is going thru the DVI port.
Only the 24" monitor comes up when I boot -- the other monitor is black (the power light is on and all the connections check out, but I can't get it to work).
I'm running Leopard (10.5.8) on that machine. Anyone run into anything similar to this?
Thanks.

Use the double wide slot.
Connect the two aux power cables.
Make sure you have 10.6.5 first.

Various audio problems with the onboard speakers but not the headphones.

The little volume wheel is connected to a variable resistor, which is soldered to the motherboard via 7 pins. when the wheel loosens up, or the pins loosen up, the onboard speakers get flaky or just don't work. We've been seeing this type of problem for a while now, and just thought that the general public should know. Either replace the motherboard, or the volume controller, or wiggle and jiggle the wheel when it gives problems. good luck all, and i hope this little tid-bit helps out.
Kudos for Linux and all freeware!!

Hi,
Try the following.
First, download and reinstall the Chipset driver on the following link.
Chipset Driver - Windows 8
When the reinstallation has completed, restart the notebook.
When windows has reloaded, download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
IDT Audio Installer - Windows 8.
When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers. Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery. Hold down the Power button for 30 seconds. Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu. Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter. Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
Let Windows fully load - it will automatically load an audio driver, but just let this complete. Then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation. 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 headphones.
Regards,
DP-K

Audio problems with the Q10

After around a year and couple of months i started to have problems with my blackberry device Q10. The problem is that when receiving the calls i cannot hear the caller unless i put them on speaker which is annoying if you are in public.... So i did the factory reset and nothing changes. Basically the phone is just silent when I receive/make a call. I can listen to music well and even use the mic to record audio sounds. Thanks in advance for your help.

sorry for the late reply, the latest software was applied around a month ago and currently im on the latest release 10.2.2.2977, please let me know if i can do anything to remedy this problem, thanks in advance for your help.

Did anyone find a solution to the 1 channel of audio problems with the SD1?

Driving me nuts

You can add multiple audio tracks by dragging audio onto the clips rather than to the background of the project window.

Audio problems with Droid/X

When sending voice messages using Cloudtalk, the recipient hears only garbage. I contacted Cloudtalk technical support, and it appears that the 3gp file sent by the phone is not recognized. This problem is known by them, and happens only on Droid/X.
Anyone else is experiencing audio problems with the droid/x?

That doesn't sound like an audio issue with the X, it sounds like a compatibility issue between the X and the service.

Trying to get my fcp project to burn to dvd at the highest quality? Ive used compressor and then tried to put it in dvdsp put its not working. I am having problems with the audio or when i burn it , i cant play the dvd? any help would be appreciated

Ive used compressor and then tried to put it in dvdsp put its not working. I am having problems with the audio or when i burn it , i cant play the dvd? any help would be appreciated

I suspect you are attempting to burn an HD DVD, which will not play on a DVD player...
But if you provide more details such as the settings you are applying in Compressor, then we would be able to provide you more accurate information.
How are you adding the files to Compressor?
In FCP, what are your footage properties (command-9) and sequence settings (command-0)

Has anyone else had a problem with the audio not keeping up with the video when switching to full screen on YouTube?

Hi. I have a OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.1 Mac Book Air, Processor 1.86 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.
Has anyone else had a problem with the audio not keeping up with the video when switching to full screen on YouTube?
The video starts out fine, but if I click on the expand icon in the lower right corner of the screen the audio won't keep up.
Refreshing the page don't help at all. In fact, nothing seems to help once it starts.
I did not have this problem at all using Mavericks. The problem started after installing Yosemite.
Any way to fix it?

only $99, i thought it was closer to $175.

Problems with the audio jacks

I just received my factory refurb Thinkstation C30. I'm having problems with the integrated audio. I'm using Windows 8.1 Pro, installed myself over the factory Windows 7. It seems to be detecting the headphones incorrectly. The internal speaker never does anything, in any case. When the headphones are plugged into the front headphone jack, the Realtek control panel thinks its the pink jack, and the microphone tab appears. Plugged into the microphone jack, it thinks its the green and pink jack, and flickers rapidly between plugged in and not plugged in on the pink jack, microphone tab appears on and off.
Now for the back jack:
Blue identifies as blue, line in tab appears.
Green indentifies as both pink and blue (somehow), line in and microphone tab appear.
Pink idenfies as pink, with rapid on/off disconnecting. Microphone tab appears and disappears repeatedly.
The behavior seems to be the same with the generic Microsoft high definition audio driver, I installed the specific one off of the driver page to after I observed this behavior.
No sound ever happens from the headphones or internal speaker. In the sound control panel, my options are speakers on Realtek High Definition Audio, and AMD HDMI output (which I use for my speaker system). On my previous computer, plugging in headphones to the front panel would switch the output from HDMI to headphones automatically.
I do have 99 days left on the warranty if I need any parts for this, I'm wondering if the wiring in the USB/headphone jack assembly is whacky.

Silly question, but have you checked the orange connector that runs from the front panel to the motherboard to ensure it's plugged in correctly?
The fact that you're seeing ports flip back and forth between two different kind if inputs (or outputs) is odd. These ports do support jack sensing, but I would expect the flickering symptom you're describing. The fact that you're also not getting any output from the internal speaker in any condition is also concerning.
I'd inspect the cabling carefully to ensure everything is connected correctly and there is not apparent damage to the cables themselves. If everything looks good there, I'd probably go the warranty route. The problem certainly seems HW related from what you're describing.

I have a problem with the audio on a movie I downloaded

I am having a problem with the audio on a movie that I downloaded. It is scratchy and difficult to listen to. How can I fix this?

Depending upon what country that you are in (films can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting the film from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes (or delete it from your iOS device and redownload it via the Purchased tab in the iTunes Store app on it)
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download films or if it re-downloads with the same problem then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

Problem with the audio when creating optimized media...

I am having a problem with the quality of my audio after I transcode the clip to optimized media. It sounds fine originally, and I have listened to the clips when I first import them, and they sound fine, it's only after they're optimized that they sound bad. There is a clicking sound that is randomly distributed throughout the clip. I thought at first that maybe this would be fixed after I published the content, as the whole point of optimized media was to make it lesser quality to improve performance while editing, but even when published the clicks could be heard distinctly. I tried editing the content with out optimizing the mdeia, but the editing is too slow as I am working with high quality media.
Has anyone had this problem? Anyone have an idea on how to I might be able to fix this?

One way would be to make sure the Preferences window under the Import tab says not to use optimized media. Then go to the timeline and Control Click the clip. Choose Reveal in Event Browser. This will select the clip in the event browser. The originally specified in and out points will be represented in the yellow border on the clip. Then in the File menu choose the Import ... Files and specify the original media. The clip in the event browser will be filled in again from the new import, and the timeline clip will also be replaced with the new material. In and out points will be honored and effects will still be in place on the timeline clip.
Now, I use this procedure to reconnect clips all the time ... I have not used it before to switch formats from optimized to original media so there is a little guessing here on my part. The option, of course, is to simply reimport from a camera archive or the camera of the SD card into a new clip then replace everything ... Again, this would need to be done having turned off the preference item to use optimized media. Hope this helps a little. Best wishes.

I have a problem with the audio

Hi, i am from Venezuela, i don't to speak very well the english, i hope your can understand me.
My computer is a HP 15 Notebook PC 15-f039wm and this present a problem with the audio.
It stard last month, i didn't give importanc, but lately the problem with the audio is more annoying, sound stutters and present failure in a less time by -05Seconds but everytime is more cotinued. And i was to reading in a fore and muchs person present the same problem!, and someone published a parcht to the problem but for a "Sony", and the parcht i don't funcione me, can your help me?.
Please, it is my email: [Personal Information Removed]
Excuse the spelling, your remember that i dont know to speak english.

Back up all data before making any changes.
If you've installed something 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 reboot. You should do that even if the software is not causing the problem, because it's useless.
If you've installed an equalizer called "Boom" or anything similar, update or delete it and reboot.
If there's no improvement, or if you're not aware of having installed anything that fits the description, post again.

Satellite U300-13U - iTunes has detected a problem with the audio config

Please can someone help me? I've got a U300-13U laptop and have just installed iTunes on it. However, when I open iTunes I get an error message saying that "iTunes has detected a problem with the audio configuration and may not play properly" That's an understatement - it doesn't play at all!
I've uninstalled, reinstalled both iTunes and Quicktime but to no avail. I've searched and exhausted the iTunes support boards but got nowhere either. The sound is fine as I can play CDs with no issues at all. The only suggestion that I can get is that there may be a problem with audio device not liking Apple and vice versa.
Does anyone have ANY idea at all as to what might be going on here? I'm completely out of my depth, I'm just a simple girl who wants to play her music!!!
Thanks ever so.

Hello
I dont use iTunes so Im not an expert with this player but first of all you should give us some important informations:
- What OS do you use?
- Are you using the factory settings (Toshiba recovery disk) or your own Windows version
- Do you have yellow exclamation marks in device manager?
Ok, iTunes told you that there is a audio configuration problem so did you try to update the sound driver? If not, you should try it.
Check the Toshiba website for an update and see what happens. Then post your result:
