No 5.1 sound Audigy 2 zs w. Klipsch speak

I have Audigy 2 zs gamers edition card with Klipsch Pro Media GMX D-5. speakers. Winxp all updates applied, all Audigy updates applied.
My problem is that I don't get 5. sound via the Audigy. When I run the creative speaker test or calibration, I only get sound from the front l/r speakers, even though I have 5. speakers selected in creative software and control panel.
When playing games with 5. sound I have this same problem. If the game has an in game speaker test (ex: half life 2), I will only hear sound from some of the speakers during the 5. test, never the rear speakers.
When I run the Klipsch electronic test I get sound in all 5 and I can tell by the unit's leds that it detects the digital connection. Klipsch connect via digital coax to audigy SPIDF.
I've verified the connectionss at least 4 times and even had a friend who also has an Audigy double check my connections.
I confirmed with klips that these speakers are 00% compatible with Audigy 2 zs for 5. sound.
In the creative software I've tried syncing with control panel, not syncing etc same issue.
Any suggestions here I"m stumped What do I need to do, to get 5. working?
thanks !

This problem has happened to me before aswell, the only way I fixed it was to re-format my computer, I dont wish to re-format everytime I update my sound drivers. So please fix this or provide a solution.

I have managed to get my Creative p580 5. speakers working, I dont know if this will help anyone but I had only installed the latest drivers from the internet, I had'nt installed anything from the CD that came with my Audigy 2 ZS.
To get my rear and center speakers working I installed the Sound Blaster Audigy 2 applications (I did'nt install Media Source) from the CD that came with the Audigy 2 ZS, this did'nt overwrite the latest drivers, it only installed the Creative applications.
Once installed and re-booted follow the steps below:
Start> All Programs> Creative> Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS> Creative Speaker Settings> -Under the Speaker/Headphone selection (it should be set to 5.) Un-Tick Synchronize with Control Panel, then restart and hopefully you should have your 5. sound back : )
I hope this helps somebody.

Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS - Vista - speaker calibration etc

Hi,
I've searched but I can't find an obvious answer to what I suspect is a common question.
I've got an Audigy 2 ZS Pro which I've just installed using the drivers from the site. It's working ok but there is no applciation for set up of the speakers in a room - as there was in the original CD that I used with XP.
Can anyone help? Or am I just imagining that a utility did exist when I last installed this on an XP machine?
Thanks
PH

JRe: Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum - Speaker issues not covered by FAQs0 I'm afriad that the CMSS3D option did not work? ? I still cannot get any speakers to play out of the rear of the soundcard.
As I said before, the goal is to try to get sound to play out of both the headset and the speakers attached to the rear of the soundcard simuntaneously.
The headset is plugged into one of those devices in the front that is in a 5 & /4" bay that has the individual knobs for adjusting volume for the headset and outbound levels for the microphone.
The speakers are plugged into the back of the soundcard and do not play any sound in any of the sockets, starting from the firewire port and counting 3 over.
Any suggestions? I? thought it might have something to do with the setting of the speakers from control panel - > Sounds and Audio Devices -> Advanced and picking the right choice there. No luck however. Same for the Creative Speaker Settings as well.
I'm at wits end and I'd be very thankful to whoever can resolve this for me. =)

Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum - Speaker issues not covered by FAQs

FSoundblaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum - Speaker issues not covered by FAQs? ?
Greetings..
Running into a bit of a issue here I can't seem to fix. I've gone through the troubleshooting guides and FAQs already and they aren't resolving the issue.
My normal setup is a couple of desktop speakers plugged to the rear of the card through the standard ports (non-digital) and a headset with mic plugged to the device in front that includes volume controls for both mic and speakers.
I've just did a complete reinstall of Windows XP (32 bit) including everything up through SP3 and a reinstall of the drivers and associated software applications for the card as well.
The problem I am having is that I can no longer make the rear speakers (desktop speakers) play when plugged in. The 2 headset speakers still play just fine that are plugged in the front however.
What should I do to resolve this issue so that I can have both the desktop speakers and headset speakers both playing? I'm fairly sure I'm just missing a setting somewhere but for the life of me I can't figure where to fix this.
Thank you,
Culann HS

Sound out of only 1 speaker

I have the iPhone 3GS and starting yesterday I'm only getting sound out of the left speaker (my left). Any ideas what could be the culprit?

There is only one speaker. The other one is the microphone.

I am not able to hear any sounds of games on the speaker. Though the sounds function on the head fones. The speaker works perfect in other applications except games.Have checked all the settings but not able to fix it.

Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the iPod and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound. Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and its the icon; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
If that doesn't solve it then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

For the past month, I've had an echo of my voice while I'm talking on my phone. It's very annoying and sounds like multiple people are speaking at the same time and it's only me. Anyone know what's wrong?

IPhone 5 YouTube sound is coming through Ear-Speaker (Not from main speaker).

I’m using Safari and Chrome to watch YouTube videos, but this morning I realize that sound is very low, later I realized that sound is coming through ear-speaker and main speaker is not working for YouTube media. Any advice?!?
Everything else is working perfect, music, ringtone, alarm all sounds coming through main speaker but all safari and chrome media is using Ear-Speaker. Really frustrating, I really think that buying iPhone5 was mistake.

I Have a similar problem occurred on my iPhone 5 , after install iOS 8 I can hear by ear speaker but the mic didn't work also volume bottoms didon't work,
my ear speaker still new in a good condition.

When I make call I cannot hear the sound from the built in speaker. I need to switch on the loudspeaker or I have to plug in the headphone. What is the solution?

No sound using stereo mixer with speaker balance s...

No sound using stereo mixer with speaker balance set between approx 95-100% of max to the right
Setup: good quality functional soundcard, fine when audio not routed via Skype, mixer enabled, Skype mic / audio auto disabled, issue present when tested using a variety of different systems, latest version of Skype was used on all machines being tested
Issue: When the speaker balance is set approx 95% to 100% to the right speaker channel using the Windows audio control no sound is generated. The issue is absent when audio is not routed via Skype. This would seem to be a Skype bug and would like to report the issue as a bug. Has anyone else encoutered this issue? Is there a resolution?

Yes, I restarted my computer yesterday and this morning all my sounds is controlled by the left/right blance percentage.

No sound out of my right speaker

I'm not getting any sound out of my left speaker through anything, music/calls/etc. No sound whatsoever. Is this supposed to be this way? Is this covered in my warranty? If it is, when I send it in, are they going to just replace the part or send me a brand new phone?

That is because the grill on the left of the iPhone isn't a speaker, it's the microphone.

I've updated my ipad to iso7 now the sound is distorted through the speaker and headphones, it is unusable! Is anyone else having this problem?

I've updated my ipad to iso7 now the sound is distorted through the speaker and headphones, it is unusable! I wouldn't dare to update my iphone. Is anyone else having this problem? Can't seem to find any fixes online?

A reset should fix it:
Double click the Home button. Slide up with one finger on ALL your apps to close them.
Then, Press the Sleep/Wake button + Home button and hold 15 seconds or until you see the Apple logo.
This will reset your device without erasing data, apps or settings.
