No Sound on Center Speaker, ONLY in the T

Hello,
I am really getting crazy now ...
I got a Soundblaster Audigy with 394 Port and an Teufel Concept E Magnum 5. System.
I connected everything correct and the Sound is really great. I only got one problem ...
If I play any sounds, for eg. mp3 in Winamp there is no Sound on my Center Speaker.
I selected 5. System in the Creative Mixer and also in Windows, in the Audio Console bla bla. The funny thing is, if I click test, there is a nice Voice telling me "center" from my center speaker. And also Call of Duty 2 works fine. But why the hell is there no Sound if I am listing music?
First I got Audigy Driver .3 from the CD and got the same problem, so I updated via automatic softwareupdate yesterday and the center worked. But today it is not working any more (only in the test and over eax stuff ...). i also reupdated today, but there is still no sound
Can you pleas help me?
Some more Informations:
Windows 2000 SP4
Please tell me what is my fault? I am getting crazy

God **bleep**, I am so stupid Yesterday a messed arround with CMSS and I didn't tryed stereo-surround
Thank you You helped me not getting crazy ;D

  • X-Fi Titanium: Almost no sound from center speaker in 5.1 mode (optical out)

    Hi everybody,
    I have searched the forum, but not found any post regarding this problem, so I'm gonna post myself.
    First of all: I have an X-Fi Titanium that is connected to my Home Theatre Dolby Digital/DTS Decoder via optical cable, so I use the DTS Li've encoding feature of my X-Fi to get 5. surround sound.
    But from the beginning I've had the following problem: When I start a game, the sound is perfectly normal, but suddenly (not at a specific action, just out of nowhere) the sound from my center speaker is almost inaudible, extremely dull. So I can still hear, for example, the explosions or voices that come from the sides or the back, but everything that is right in front of me or is played back only through the center is almost silent.
    When I quit the game, start the THX-Console and click on each speaker, all of them except the center speaker play back the test sound (like "front left", "front right" or whatever it is in the English version, I have the German version).
    Switching to another mode (game, entertainment or the third, don't know what it's called in the English version), resetting the sound card via the control panel or clicking on "Standard" (or maybe "Default" in the English software?) does not bring back the sound on the center speaker, all I can do is switch to two-speaker- or headphones-mode so the center speaker is not used. Even rebooting windows does not work. I haven't figured out yet what exactly helps, but usually after a while suddenly the center works again.
    The only reliable solution is to reinstall the whole software and driver, but with the slow Creative servers, it always takes hours to download all updates with Auto-Update, and installing everything with each single file for each little software module isn't much faster either.
    I must say that I am very disappointed by Creative. Before my X-Fi Titanium I had an X-Fi Platinum, and the drivers really sucked. I hoped that this was because at that time, the X-Fi series was still quite new. But almost nothing has really improved since then. I would like to have ONE installation routine for the whole software package, with checkboxes to choose what I want to install, and not only when using the original CD, but also with the update files for download. And, most of all, I want the driver to just work! Since the beginning, I've only had problems with these cards.
    Anyway, I hope someone can help me on this. Thanks a lot in advance.

    I think I see what is happening now.
    When using the analog outputs (5.), you have to enable bass redirection, and set the front or back speakers to small in the "Bass Management" screen of the THX control panel.
    Bass redirection does not send anything to the subwoofer if the front and back speakers are all set to large. There should be a bypass switch for this, so the bass can be sent to full size satellites and the subwoofer.
    When using the spdif DDL output, my receiver would decode and send bass to the subwoofer on it's own.
    Only buggy part I'm noticing now is that I lose all bass occasionally on boot, and must do an "Auto Detect..." in the "Speaker Configuration" screen of the THX control panel to get it back.

  • No Sound From Center Speaker [Win 7]

    $No Sound From Center Speaker [Win 7]? Hi,
    I downloaded the Darkest of Days demo and noticed that the speech volume was very low if i positioned it center of the camera. But if i positioned it on the left or right of the camera, the speech volume would increase. I found it strange.
    I closed the game. And ran my speakers through window's speaker test. Every speaker responded with a sound. Unconvinced, i opened a few songs. That's when i noticed the center speaker wasn't producing a sound. Even on 5. content (movies & music) the center speaker wouldn't work.
    **bleep**, no wonder those AC3 movies had low speech and i had to manually boost the speech volume. I noticed the low sound in games before too...but i attributed it to the 5. surround thing. Guess i was wrong!

  • No sound from center speaker during calibration, games, DVD movies (have already read the stic

    For those that point at the sticky topic, let me just say that I've already read it, implemented the suggestions there, and it has provided no result.
    My setup is an Audigy 2 ZS card mated with Altec Lansing VS35 5. speakers. I've connected the cables correctly, enabled CMSS, updated my drivers to the latest version, but during Speaker Calibration, playing games, watching DVD movies, there is no output from the center speaker. If I watch encoded movies (avi files), I can hear sound from the center speaker. So what seems to be the problem? Anyone got any suggestions?Message Edited by mofo on 03-9-2005 08:0 AM

    I have the same problem, games and music etc all speakers work, but during the tests/calibration I get no sound from rear speakers, center or the sub...... help please! (from the firewire port out the plugs all go as follows: yellow, black, green)

  • Sound on one speaker only

    Last night, while using iChat with another Mac user I was only getting sound from one speaker (right). Both speakers work with iTunes so it's not my hardware (I don't think it is anyway). Could this just be poor bandwidth?
    Thanks.
    MacBook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Hi MacBoy70,
    This is the iChat software preventing you getting feedback as the MacBook Pro internal Mic is in the left hand speaker grill.

  • No sound from center speaker and static from Subwoofer

    Hello everyone,
    I have used the search function and found several topics with the title "no center sound" but none of them had a usefull solution for me. I am using a Medusa 5. Headset and have connected it correctly. Note that the setup worked for over 3 years, but aperently recently something in the settings must have changed since I noticed playing Fallout New Vegas, that my center sound is missing.
    Here are some facts :
    I am using Windows Vista home 64 Bit with the X-Fi Xtreme Gamer card
    Using the Creative Console Launcher ver. 2.6.09 (Settings on Game Mode, CMSS 3D disabled, Crystalizer disabled and EQ disabled). Clicking the center speaker for testing, gives me no sound. Clicking on the subwoofer gives me a static sound. Going to the settings "Bass" and enabling Bass Redirection. Doing the same test gives me a "dull, hollow, silent, very far away, hardly hearable" sound on center and the subwoofer speaker, but not a usefull result.
    Leaving the Creative Console Launcher and going to the standard Windows Vista sound menu, I can there click speakers for testing aswell. There is still no sound from the center speaker, however clicking on the subwoofer gives me a very nice bass sound, so working as intended for the subwoofer.
    I tested the center/subwoofer connection by connecting it to my Ipod, speakers are working.
    All drivers and application are the latest version.
    On the webpage of Speedlink (the manufacturer of my headset) they refer to a THX Console. I am sure I have seen that application on my system long time ago, but it is not installed anymore. I can't find it on the creative page either, so I am a bit confused where that program went (and even if it can help my problem).
    I am 99% sure it has to do with a setting somewhere in the software, but I can't find it. Any idea?

    Hi,
    Can you please launch your Creative Console Launcher and click on the Default checkbox? That should reset everything back to it's default settings. Run the speaker test again to see if you are getting sound from the center speaker.
    If possible please test the sound card on another computer, that should help you find out if the sound card is faulty or not.

  • Popping sound from right speaker only of imac

    I recently bought a (refurbished) September 2013 model imac 21.5".  Looks great, but only one problem when I play any audio/ video, streamed or local, there come a clicking and popping sound from the right side only.

    Hello,
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.

    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.

  • Center Speaker plays center sounds and rear sounds. Inspire 5.1 5300 speakers.

    My inspire 5.1 5300 speakers are set up for 5.1 surround sound. I have CMSS enabled. I hear static from the rear speakers. Everything seems to be set up just fine. But when I run the speaker test the front right, center, and front left work. The rear left and rear right speaker sound comes out of the center speaker instead of the rear speakers even though the center speaker also gives out the correct test sound.
    I have an audigy card, SB0090 is the model number. I don't know the retail name.

    I dont see how the sub wont work. It has the seperate front, rear, and center in. The sub should work with just the front in as far as i know. My SBS 450 seems to work that way... i have yet to get my inspire 5.1 working but ill find out if i happen to..

  • 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.

  • Can't here my center speaker on my Inspire 5.1 p5800

    I got inspire 5.1 p5800 speakers and my sound card is an sound blaster audigy platinum.
    When i do test my center speaker works out find, but when i play music of any audio file type, video of any file type, dvd in 5. mode and games in 5.1 mode I can't here my center speaker.
    If I put the speaker of to my ear I here low volume sound (very low volume).
    Can anyone help

    I found media player that will play the center channel now!If you have it use intervideo dvd 6 as a music player.
    and set it for the 5.1 of course and I like movie surround more than music surround
    one thing i love with p5800 speakers base is that at only 83% max base on sound card turned on and only 50% base on speakers turned on its one heck of a loud base
    its all based on what files are 5.1 and which are not and win dvd platinum can force the upmix to make the center speaker work if the stuff isn't 5.1 .
    like windows media player has 5.1 but doesnt change the play back of things that arn't 5.1
    I dont know why on some dvds on media player you set to 5.1 the center channel doesn't work though.
    But at least as long as your 5.1 mode turned on in intervideo win dvd 6 platinum the file will always play 5.1 even if the file is mono sound.
    another good thiong about intervideo win dvd 6 is that it plays the divx and to me the performance is better than my divx pro....

  • Creative Inspire 5.1 Digital 5700 center speaker problem

    I have a SB Audigy sound card, here is my problem when i run the speaker test they all work and when i put effect on CMSS Movie or CMSS Music all the speakers work but when i put in Fourpoint 5. Din and run lets say EAX Goldmine, lisen to music or play a game i dont get sound from the Center speaker. All the other work just fine and sound come from the right direction exept if there is sound in front of me i cant hear it, any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
    JL

    Jlt_230
    The Fourpoint/5. DIN mode acts as a bypass mode for discrete multichannel Digital DIN and 4 channel Analog signals from various sources and passes these signals direct to each speaker output. Therefore when playing back non Dolby Digital 5. (AC3) signals such as Stereo, you will only get Stereo (Left & Right channel) signals without the center signal.
    You should be able to get the center channel when you playback Dolby Digital 5. (AC3) sources.

  • How can I make audio come out of the phone speaker rather than the standard speaker in android?

    just like the title says. is this possible? Has anyone sussessfully done this?

    With AIR 2.7, there is no way to switch between device speaker and phone  earpiece on Android and iOS. All sounds, by default, play through device speaker only.
    The link mentioned by Colin just presents a way to enable phone receiver on iOS. However thats a bug and will be rectified in future releases. So I will not encourage you to use that.
