Hi abbottles and Welcome to the discussions!
There are numerous posts about clicking noises on this forum.
Answers range from the benign to the click of death. My advice would be to give Apple a call, get a case number, and go from there.

Both rear output is heard through left rear speaker, none in right rear spea

I have a Soundblaster Audigy card with Creative Insire 5. 5200 Speakers. The problem I am having is no sound is heard from the right rear speaker channel. I know the speaker works, as I have switched them around to check (they all work). Doing the speaker test, all speakers are heard in order, and when it gets to the left rear speaker, it plays both the right and left rear message. In other words, both my right and left rear sounds are playing on the left rear speaker, with no sound out of the right rear speaker. I have all of the updated drivers for the product. I don't know if it is hardware or software related, or if it is the speaker system, but I do know all the speakers work. I am showing no problems (even hidden) in the hardware manager. Any help or clues would be appreciated

Bump !!?Cause I am having this exact same problem with my xf-i (XtremeMusic) and my logitech Z-5500 Speakers. I have them connected using the 3 analog wires and yes, they are correctly plugged in. The Logitech Control Pod is set with the switch in the rear to the 6 channel position and the Pod is listed as the source being 'Direct' and '6 Channel' when I try this. When I run the speaker test, it fails the right rear speaker (no sound) and when I try the left rear, the sound comes out of both rear speakers. I have also tried the THX speaker setup settings and they do the same thing on the test (set for 5.). Also, I have all the settings on the Entertainment module set to push the audio to the External Decoder (for everything, since the 5500's can do this, decode DTS and Dolby). Regardless, it should at least be able to pass the Speaker Test. I did have an Audigy card installed, but I removed it before installing this card. The only thing I had installed for the Audigy was the drivers and there was nothing listed in 'add/remove' to remove them. I had none of the apps installed (cause I knew the xf-i was coming)?I sent a email to creative and have heard nothing (been a day, I know they say -2 days, but come on, hire people !!). Can someone out there please help !
!!! Thank alot?Dr-

Inspire 5200 5.1 sound from both R & L rear speakers coming from left rear speaker only

I have done a complete sound system check, every thing check out good. From the rear speakers I am only getting sound from left rear. When i do a speaker check, when right rear speaker lites, sound comes from left rear. when left rear speaker lites sound also comes from left rear speaker.

creek,
You may have to check with your sound card manufacturer for special setting to upmix the Stereo to the rest of the speaker.
If you are using Creative 5.1 sound card, you can refer to the link for the CMSS upmix feature.

The headphone input makes noise whenever I connect any headphone. The noise comes out of headphones but the problem exists in the port.

Crackling, Left Rear Channel noise, IRQs, 4 Gigs of Memory, fixes and problems with XFi Fatal

Hello fellow troubleshooters. Well I've been working on my XFI issues since there are so many of them trying to make the one piece in my newly built system work as intended. I will put my hardware info below this post for comparison purposes if it helps you at all or for feedback/ideas. Well first off I had the crackling noise popping so on even when my machine was idle. If you have not done this yet do it
!!! Start, Control Panel, Sounds Speech and Audio Device, Change Speaker Settings, Advanced (in device volume), ok now there is a bunch of sliders go to "options" check everything, ok now that you see all the sliders mute Everything besides: Play Control, Wave, CD Player for testing purpose. You will probably hear a difference as you do it. Especially Mic 2. Ok well that issue resolved my popping crackling noises when idle. Ok so I still have a shared IRQ issue since I have an Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe board and the slots go as such PCI-E, PCI, PCI, PCI-E, PCI. Well since the GeForce 7800 GTX cards I have take up not just the PCI-E slot, but also the PCI slot is covered from the Huge Fan. Then the Same thing for the Second graphics card. So I have only one slot that works for my PCI Fatalty sound card. Well this forces me to share PCI IRQ between one of the Video Cards and the Sound Card. Its not a "conflict" it is simply sharing the IRQ, after the above issue fixed my popping issue this no longer was a concern. Now my big issue is that I sent my Sub Woofer in for RMA, I have the Gigaworks S750 7. THX speakers, they are great but when I really crank up the volume on them I would get the sound like a speaker was blown in the left rear channel, so I swapped another speaker in its place and I have the same problem. So the RMA folks said to send in the Sub Woofer which cost me over $30 to ship the thing only to have them tell me there is no problem. Well I had recently done RMAs on my sound card, both Video Cards, and my mother board too in hopes of fixing the next problem. So everything is new though I got a refurb on the mobo. So I'm just waiting on my Sub woofer now so I'm using my headphones and guess what I'm finding there is this noise in the left speaker, an issue I sent the headphones back for a long time ago when I was using them waiting to buy my speakers. I have the Creative Pro Gamer headphones. So now I read a post about someone else with the same issue left channel, and I have to wonder I am not alone and that usually means in Creative Labs land there probably is others with this issue that have spouses that wont let them stretch their audiophile legs with extreme volume, if this is you try it out kick up the bass, and see if you have this problem too, if so please post it here. I have no clue on this one and I am open to any ideas. Ok and the last issue!! This is the real problem I'm facing now. I play EQ2 I love my MMO titles with the occassional single player title for those short stints at the computer between work, parenting, and stuff my wife demands be started before she finishes speaking of it (those of you married know what I'm talking about). I have 2 operating systems, XP Home, and XP Pro 64. Home I use for Office, graphic design, and general applications. XP Pro 64 I use purely for gaming. All my games are installed through this OS which is on my 2 74 Gig Raptors in Raid 0, I have another Partition for XP Home, and a 3rd for all the game installs. So I recently found that after selecting Extreme Graphics option in EQ2 then moving the rest of the sliders to Max that my G5 keyboard which has a performance monitor in it showing the amount of Ram usage showed me hitting about 90% and would spilke at the same time as I found I had frame rate slowdown. So I decided to get 2 more gigs of Corsair Twin XMS 3500Pro 024x2 memory bumping me up to 4 gigs. Well I had to go into the bios I found and change a memory setting to discrete and enable the memory hole in order for XP Pro 64 and the motherboard to see the memory. At this time I was working on other things with my computer, and suddenly the popping noise came back so I'm pissed now.... But oddly its not happening in XP home, only in XP 64. So I'm thinking I may have to go to XP home for my gaming OS, then just before I install home I remember that XP home wont register 4 gigs of memory.... So I go turn off the memory hole and discrete settings and this sets the memory to 2 gigs.... Crackling sound in ALL EAX GAMES goes away.... So now clearly my issue with my sound card and EAX crackling noise is Memory related somehow. Now I have isolated it to 4 gigs of memory, but it makes me think of those folks with this issue perhaps something is amiss with their memory and how it works with timing, or onboard memory on the sound card which is a first time memory is put on a sound card?.... Any input is appreciated as to how to repair this issue, thanks for reading, below is my system set up.

Evolve,
I have the a8n-sli Premium which as you stated is basically the same board with a couple extra items. I have the latest beta bios ver -06. Since the early fall release the option which we will be talking about was available in the premium board which it I remember was Bios rev 9. I would download the latest bios rev.
07.04 (latest beta?or go with 06)?and flash in. Here are the steps to get the proper memory options to work and I have also included my system specs to compare.
) Hit Del to get into Bios
2) Go to the second tab on the top of the screen "Advanced"
3) Select the first option in the menu "CPU Configuration"
4) Select the first option in the "CPU Configuration" menu called "DRAM Configuration"
5) Select Manual configuration from the first Menu item.
6) The last two options in the same menu for DRAM are s/w remapping over 4G and h/w remapping over 4G. Select the "s/w remapping option over 4G" and enable it. Disable the "h/w remapping over 4G."?
7) Hit f0 and save the config.
You should now at post have 4GBws total but only 3GBs of usable memory and your X-fi should crush it in XP64 and XP32.
My Specs
A8n-sli premium (Bios -06)
amd X2 4400 (~2.5 GHZ)
4GB LL patriot memory (~228 HZ)
X-Fi Extreme Music
LSI 320-2e PCI express SCSI RAID controller (256MB buffer)
2x Seagate Cheata 5K.3?dri'ves
All water cooled
Good Luck
PapaH
By the way this is defiantly a XP64 driver problem because even with h/w remapping enabled in XP32 the card sounds fine. It only happens in XP64.

Ear speaker issue comes out after 3 days!

i just bought this phone 4 days ago hoping for the best quality as i had xperience before in neoV. But im now very disappointed because my ear speaker is having a shadow soud (like tuning in an am radio) after a sound. imagine after only 4 days. i think it starts after i used my phone in loudspeaker mode for 1 hour. but atleast if this is a great phone it will not happen. This is my last purchase in sony. Im doubtful in their future designs. Im not happy to use this phone, planning to bring it back to phone shop i bought or i well sell and get another brand.

In such a case your best option may be returning the device back to the place of purchase, however such an issue can be caused by third party software or software not working as it should.
You could attempt a software repair first before taking it back.
Here's how to run the repair on PC Companion:
1. Install and open PC Companion then select Support Zone.
2. Phone Software Update.
3. Start.
4. Repair Phone
5. Continue
6. Accept data removal
7. Next
8. Wait for prepare
9. Select Phone
10. Follow the connection steps
And Bridge for Mac:
1. Launch Bridge for MAC without the handset connected.
2. On the Main Window select "Xperia > Repair Xperia Device".
3. Ensure the phone is charged and select "Ok" in the following window.
4. Select Continue on the following page.
5. Wait until the initialising step is finished the continue as below.
6 . Select your model of phone from the list that appears
7. Follow the connection steps that appear, ensuring that you are holding the relevant button down before during and after the connection phase until the update/repair begins.
Let us know how you get on.

A repeating tapping noise comes out of my internal speakers

When the volume is on I get this consistent noise dut dut dut dut dut. When I put speakers on mute, it goes away. It is like a low consistent drum/tap noise and the louder i move the volume, the louder the noise. It is constant. Any ideas

trying to do this on a macbook pro...please help

N73ME.. SNOWY noise comming out of speakers/headph...

whenever i start application or a game which uses sound it starts sending some weird snowy noise in the background...
while if i use emulator forexample vBag and i use sound this doesn't happend..
this started happening from yesterday...

thx for trying to help, but i have tryed these suggestions allready..
i even did a hard format by using the 3 buttons and start...also i tryd putting the same firmware again but that didn't help either.
the volume is never on max...
i usualy play some game when its quiet around but this noise really disturbs me.. you can hear it like in background ..
its not noticable so much when using music player.. but with games its reallly really bad

MediaSource: No left rear sound with mlp 5.0 fi

I have an Audigy 2 ZS running on Win XP. I make my own MLP files. I used to make 5. files, but I just started making 5.0 files (24 bit, 88200 Hz). I play them in MediaSource. 5. files play fine, but with 5.0 files, the left rear speaker is mute. If I use these 5.0 mlp files to create a DVD-Audio, all channels play fine with the Creative DVD-Audio Player or PowerDVD. I have a friend who has exactly the same problem with the same card. This looks like a MediaSource bug. Is there a solution?

I have a variation on that problem. Same speakers and setup... Logitech control console test works fine, THX console polarity test works fine (ergo my connections are ok)... however an individual speaker test (with THX or Creative Audio Console) does the following:
Front Left - both front speakers output sound
Front Center - fine
Front Right - no sound
Rear Right - no sound
Rear Left - both rear speakers output sound
Subwoofer - fine
I get sound from all speakers when listening to music or playing a game... but in EAX games, any noises coming from the left of me sound like they're coming from both left and right, and I don't hear any noises coming from my right... how's that for a handicap in FPS games. It's all a bit depressing really.
EDIT: seconds after making this post, I rechecked the analog connections to the Logitech control console... turns out they weren't pushed in all the way... the colored plastic bits are so thick it's a wonder they squeeze in next to each other at all (it's even worse on the back of the X-Fi card). Slap on Logitech's wrist, as well as mine. Anyway... I hope you've fixed your problem, Zilion, or if not maybe double check those 'snug' analog jacks if you haven't already.Message Edited by Ilmarin on 05-2-2006 0:4 AM

POP sound come out from air vent

Hi every mac user out there,
My MacBook pro 15 inch recently don't know why, start to have a pop sound out from the back of my MacBook pro's air vent, this started after I open the below case just for checking(because last time I saw a little tiny bug going inside!), after that I heard the pop sound, in early state, sound I quite loud so I think maybe is my hand or some other thing make it, then a few day ago, there still has a pop sound but just a small sound from the vent, after about 5min of usage it will show up, any idea?
Note:my mac does not has any dust inside the fans or the vent, I haven't do any battery calibration or any rmc or NVRAM reset recently, I not over use my mac only does when editing some movie and play game ,does this affect them?

I also have this problem with my Extreme Gamer Fatilty X-Fi. In 6 channel direct mode 5. works perfectly but if I switch to the SPDIF mode connected to that Creative Digital I/O addon thing the rear left and rear right sound comes out of the front right and front left. This is with the latest drivers. I tried a clean re-install of the drivers and apps using driver cleaner but the sound is still messed up.
I guess thats an improvement in for me. With Vista 64, SPDIF didn't even work at all till the more recent drivers, so I guess you could call it progress, creative style.
I am lucky I have little need for SPDIF with this card as its not a main source of movies/TV for me. This system is mostly used for gaming, and at least that works good. Had I needed this for a HTPC or something I would be very very pissed off. If I had paid for that DDL thing I would be livid having already paid for their $4 Digital adapter addon which is rendered worthless.

Problems with my left rear spea

I've just noticed my left rear speaker of my 5. speakersystem (Creative I-Trigue 5600) is not working at least not as good as the others. I've checked my right rear speaker and it justs works like it suppose too. I know that my left rear speaker once did it work but now it doesnt anymore.
I changed the speakers and came to the conclusion the speaker its self is not broken , it should be either the input in the subwoofer or something with my soundcard (Creative Soundblaster Li've 24Bit).
If anyone can help me with these i would be very greatful maybe i can fix this myself?
Greetings,

It sounds like the trackpad is bad. The whole keyboard would need to be replaced. If you don't have AppleCare, you probably are looking at a few hundred dollars.

A noise comes from my ear-phone

Hi,
If this post is in-appropriate for any reasons, please let me know, and I am sorry for that.
But I did google and follow the instructions on the wiki, and nothing helps.
A noise, sounds like electricity, just comes.
And another buzz sound comes together while moving the mouse.
My system is:
Mother board= ASUS P4P800 (ICH4-Inter ICH5, 82801EB/ER, AD1985)
Kernel=2.6.27.10-1
alsa-lib=1.0.18-1
alsa-utils=1.0.18-1
Does anyone use the same mother-board without sound problem? or
anyone has a clue how to check out the problem?
thx

Thank all of you.
I tried Ubuntu Live CD, and the noise still comes out.
So how can I be sure if it is a "hardware" problem?
I mean... the noise comes out while "udevadm settle" (in /etc/rc.sysinit) had finished.
If it is a "hardware" problem, shouldn't it comes out even in.... BIOS (or GRUB) ?
Besides, udevadm settle is used to load kernel modules, so it is quite reasonable to say that
there must be some modules which cause this problem, right?
Also I tried to remove kernel modules used by none, but it doesn't help, neither.
Those modules still loaded are:

Audio does not come out of my left speak

Hello,
I just installed a fresh installation of Vista two days ago.
When I installed it, I had a Sound Blaster Li've! 5. card in my machine, and the card did not work until I installed KM audio drivers (which made only the 2 rear speakers work).
Today I went out and bought the X-Fi Xtreme Audio card.
The installation appeared to work, and I installed the Vista drivers from www.soundblaster.com.
When I go to audio management, and test the speakers, audio comes out of all 5.
BUT - when Windows Media Player, MediaSource 5, and any other system sound plays... my front left and rear left speakers do not play a thing.
I know they are working, because when I tried the surround audio from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/democenter/9series/avquality/wmapromp3/default.htm
they all played, but when I played stereo... it only came out of front right and rear left.
ALSO - I can't seem to find the Entertainment Mode, and some other features advertised on the box and guide that came with the CD.
Does anybody know what I can do to fix these issues? Help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Anthony Coy

My iMac sound keeps resetting to come out of left or right speaker only. Why?

I have a new iMac 5k Retina. With this purchase I also started using some speakers through the headphone jack. I've noticed this annoying pattern that quite often the sound from the iMac keeps resetting to come out of the left speaker only or the right speaker. I keep having to reset it to balance them.
Is there a way to stop this?
Thanks.
