Inspire T7700 + Audigy 2 ZS Gamer, Sound only working in 1 Satellite

Loyal Creative fan in need here of help for the first time. I quadruple-checked to make sure my connections to the sound card and speakers were accurate, and installed drivers and software in the correct order over and over, but I am still only getting sound in the left rear speaker. I have read responses to many threads but still could not find the answer that I needed. I made sure that CMSS was enabled, but that didn't help at all. Every driver and software is up to date and as I said all of my connections are correct. What am I missing here? Please help, thanks in advance. -Stephen

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.

    Maybe I understood your problem. Get to Settings > Sounds > Ringers and Alerts >Turn Change With Buttons to Off. And if your Side Switch is assigned to 'Mute', turn it back on, else, use the control center to turn off mute.

  • Sound only works from one port

    My sound only works when I use the output port on the back of my computer, but I'd also like to use the one at the front of my computer for convenience. What setting am I supposed to change to do this? Here is some information about my system.

    The "Front" channel isn't the same thing as the front panel. From the ALSA wiki:
    "Front, Surround, Center, LFE (subwoofer) and Side (these are the names of the channels with Intel HD Audio, they may vary with different hardware)."

  • IPod 5 sound only works when head phones are pluged in

    Sound only works when ear phones are pluged in

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

  • IPhone 5s no call/text sounds work. Game sounds done work either. Only sound that works are music and videos

    the call/text sounds don't work. Neither do sounds coming from the games I play(clash of clan) or other apps I use such as snapchat/vine. the sounds only When I play music/videos

    Hi there Prideleader,
    You may want to try force closing all open apps and resetting the device as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the articles below for more information.

  • Sound only works with Netflix via Mini DisplayPort

    I recently ordered a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter  (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007DNG9DY/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i00) for use with my Macbook Pro (purchased in 2011). I followed all of the setup instructions for display and sound (in both system preferences and Audio Midi). It seems that the audio is working only on Netflix. I have tried watching videos on other websites like YouTube and ABC, and there is video but no sound. Sound also works for video files that are on my computer. 
    Does anyone know why I would not have any sound only on certain websites? Is there a way to fix this?

    I had this exact same issue with my mini and a Toshiba 1080p TV.
    The reason is pretty technical and involves the EDID signal being lost between TV and Mini. (I think the TV can't re-acquire the signal from the mini)
    The only way I found to solve it was to buy one of these:
    http://www.gefen.com/kvm/dproduct.jsp?prod_id=4714
    (Gefen DVI Detective)
    Once setup it stores the EDID so that the TV always displays the mini's video signal.
    It's easy to setup and works fine for me (I've used it connected directly to my TV and through a HDMI switch). Only problem is the price for something that should already work.

  • Ipod sound only works for right ear

    Hello. I have an Apple Ipod 5th generation. I have had it for a few months now. Lately, the right channel sound stopped working. Only the left ear works. It does not matter which headphones I use. If i pull the headphone jack out a little bit, I get mono in both ears. I have tried cleaning the headphone jack with a cloth covered screwdriver and alcohol. It made no difference.
    Any suggestions, short of replacement of the headphone jack on the Ipod?

    You should still have your warranty. Its for one year...found this out after my one year had expired so if you send it back to them you're still covered.

  • Any ideas why the sound only works on about half of my apps?

    Any ideas why the sound on my ipad only works on about half of my apps?

    The problem of tracks becoming de-linked between iTunes and the music files in your iTunes music folder happens for different reasons - this seems to come up fairly commonly in this forum.
    The solution can be to locate each song in the iTunes library, as you mentioned - or, but wait, before I get to that...
    trouble finding the original track in your iTunes music folder? maybe look for it under compilations, or if not using the 'group compilations preference' then look in the folder under the songs artist name, but what song artist name iTunes uses depends on what you have in the metedata tag spot for album artist or song artist. Any varyation in artist name spelling, in the menu item 'get info' metadata for any selected individual track will cause iTunes to create that as a separate artist folder in the library, even names like 'various' or any difference at all (even the word 'the' can change where in your iTunes music folder a track gets placed by iTunes). You can try to use the finder function of find file (finder munu item outside of iTunes) to locate hard to find items.
    Back to how to re-link any de-linked tracks .
    There may be scripts that can help re-link de-linked music files - or, at least provide you a list of such files, Scripts are easy to install and use...
    at Dougs Scripts, there is one called iTunes Track CPR that might work
    http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=itunestrackcpr
    or, if you just want a list of de-linked tracks, go to
    http://dougscripts.com/itunes/
    and find the script called List MIA's, this will create a text file listing all de-linked tracks

  • Why does the sound only work for certain programs?

    The sound is only working for certain programs on my iPad. Does anyone know why? Any help is appreciated.

    It sounds like you have System Sounds muted. Either the switch on the side, or double tap the home button and swipe to the right, ICON will be on the far left. If the ICON is screen lock related, then it is the switch on the side.

  • Sound only works on speaker

  • Intel iMac sound only works out of one speaker, but both headphones...

    Hello.
       I've run into a very interesting problem with the sound of my 20" Intel iMac's sound. Ever since I moved into my new appartment, my Logitech computer speakers have only worked out of the left speaker. The strange bit is that if I plug any pair of headphones into the same jack I get perfect sterio sound. I've check my sound preferences to make sure the sound is balanced, checked multiple pairs of headphones (that are all known to work perfectly), multiple pairs of computer speakers (that are all known to work perfectly), I even plugged in my M-Audio fast track USB audio interface with the same results (left channel only with speakers, sterio with headphones) Another weird thing is that I tested both pairs of computer speakers with my roommate's 20" Intel iMac (same model) and both worked just fine.
      I feel like I've run the gambit of things I could do to eliminate a faulty component. Do you think I have a faulty jack? something wrong with my software/hardware? I'm completely stumpped...anyone have any ideas?

    You've done a lot of testing such that it sounds like the jack and plug combination of the Logitechs and the iMac are just a hair short now, and the move is the only thing that changed. Can you compare the headphone plug and the Logitech plug side by side for length? Is one of them a straight plug and the other a 90 degree such that it can't get all the way in now? I'm sure you've tried pushing it in extra hard or wiggling a bit. One guy on here awhile back sent pix of his headphone port and the one right beside it on the back of his iMac, and the headphone one was recessed slightly deeper into the iMac's body.

  • Dell Inspiron 7537 - Sound only works after resuming from suspend

    Hello,
    So my sound does not work after boot, only once I resume from suspend. So, once I turn on my computer, and I load sound, nothing work (everything is unmuted in Alsa) - then if I suspend my computer and resume - the sound works every time.
    I use Alsa and here is my amixer output (before and after suspend is the same) :
    eric@archlinux ~> amixer
    Simple mixer control 'Master',0
    Capabilities: pvolume pswitch pswitch-joined
    Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right
    Limits: Playback 0 - 65536
    Mono:
    Front Left: Playback 5358 [8%] [off]
    Front Right: Playback 5358 [8%] [off]
    Simple mixer control 'Capture',0
    Capabilities: cvolume cswitch cswitch-joined
    Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right
    Limits: Capture 0 - 65536
    Front Left: Capture 11003 [17%] [on]
    Front Right: Capture 11003 [17%] [on]
    What gets rebooted when I do a suspend, but not when I reboot? Does not seem to make sense to me.
    Thanks.

    Is there any additional information I can include to help figure this out?

  • Sound only works on dock

    I've been having the sound problem on my iphone 4s for about a week now. The sound bar shows nothing. I can only hear sounds when I have the headphones plugged in and when the phone rings. But i cannot hear apps and music. I saw a post on another board that you can try to put in on an ihome dock and press play and then the volume bar will come back. So, i tried that. the volume bar did come back for about 10 seconds and then disappeared. The keyboard clicks were back and the sound played through the speakers. I am completely baffled as to what to do. I went to the Genius bar and they told me that the water indicator was red in the headphone jack. To me that didn't make sense b/c that's the only place I COULD hear sound. He said that there was nothing for them to do other than to replace the phone for $199 or try to have them fix it (I am 2 months out of warranty). I've cleaned the dock, ports, every knook and cranny i could find on the phone, stuck everything i could find into every orifice of the phone and still no sound.
    is there anyone who has any suggestions as to why it only works on the dock and with headphones?

    The Geniuses usually won't steer you wrong, but no one's perfect.
    Try double clicking home to bring up the multitasking bar. Swipe to the right twice. There should be a volume bar. Adjust it the way you like.
    Also, make sure the Volume Limit setting isn't on. Check in Settings > Music
    If none of that works, I can't help.

  • Sound only working intermittently

    I have recently bought my son his first computer, a secondhand late '07 Macbook, running 10.6.8.
    All works well except for an intermittent loss of sound.
    When the sound fails the volume icon in the top bar greys out & in System Preferences/Sound it says "Play sound effects through  - DIGITAL OUTPUT , but when the sound is working ok it says INTERNAL SPEAKERS.).
    We have no control over this, the problem is intermittent & occurs without any input from us.
    When in Sys Preferences/Sound it says 'Digital Output' there are no other options to select. Likewise when the sound is working & it says 'Internal Speakers' there are no other options to select.
    Although the relevant item in Sys Pref/Sound is "Play Sound Effects Through... " when it says 'Digital Out' All sound is lost, not just sound effects. ie. no iTunes sound, no Youtube sound etc.
    We were sitting in front of the machine, bemoaning the fact that I had no idea what to do to get the sound back, not touching the machine, sound preferences open. We saw it change back to being operational in front of our eyes. Digital Out changed to Internal speakers & sound was fully restored.
    I would dearly welcome an thoughts about what might be going on & whether it is likely to be easy/cheap to fix.  Hopefully a loose internal connection somewhere ???
    Thanks folks
    Cuppa
    Ps. I used the Macbook on & off for a week with no sound problems........... until today

    It's Ok, I've sussed it. Found other discussions here regarding same problem. (Should've looked first).
    Problem is a sticky micro switch inside the headphone socket.
    When it says 'Digital Output' in preferences, a red light can be seen inside the headphone socket. This means the micro switch has got stuck, & the computer thinks headphones are plugged in.
    In our case the red light was flickering. Other threads suggest pushing a headphone jack in & out to try to free up the switch. Our experience is that as soon as a headphone jack (not connected to headphones or anything else) was plugged in sound was restored to the computer, & as long it remained plugged in sound remained. When unplugged the sound may or may not remain on, or may go off after a short time. I guess we need a new headphone socket, but for now the 'fix' will suffice.
    Odd though, I would have thought plugging in the jack would ensure the sound remained off???
