Skype can't detect sound card

Skype was working just fine previously when making a video call (could hear the other person well - no problems.) Then I stopped using the monitor stereo speakers and installed desktop speakers.
Wasn't happy with them and uninstalled them about a day or two later. When I tried to make a video call again (after choosing monitor speakers again under the pc control panel - sounds and audio devices, also tried to choose monitor stereo speakers in Skype but didn't see this option) - there was no sound - even on the Skype test.
So I tried "check settings" and saw under speaker - "can't detect your sound card". Under adjust speaker settings there's no speaker suggestions at all - it just says none.
I also cancelled the speaker setting on SoundMAX digital integrated audio under the control panel.
I have rebooted the system but still the same problem!

I'v sorted out the problem. Sorry for the inconvenience!

  • Skype can't detect sound card, issue with playback...

    Hello
    I have just received my Razer kraken 7.1 headset and have installed razer synapse 2.0. I have set up my mic and speakers of the headset through the control panel, my playback is set as the razer kraken 7.1 earphone and the mic is set as the headset microphone through the recording tab. When I launch skype there is no sound produce through the application, however with previous headsets there has been, I have tried going on youtube to see if sound comes through the headset and it does. Previously I have been using a turtle beach z11 which used 3.5mm jacks in to the computer however this new headset is usb operated. When skype opens and I try to call someone it says problem with playback device meaning I can't call anyone at all. However when checking call quality it says everything is working fine even though it isn't.
    So far I have tried re-installing skype and restarting my pc none of this has worked so far, I know this isn't likely a fault with the headset as it works with all other programmes I have tried.
    I am using a custom built pc with
    OS: WIN7 64 BIT Home Premium
    GPU: AMD HD7950
    CPU: i5-3550
    RAM: 8gb 1333mhz
    Motherboard: Asus p67 series
    Sound card: Onboard 7.1 audio
    Any help with my problems would be much appreciated.
    -Thanks
    George Snell

    @gsnell, Please setup your audio device directly in Skype and not only in the windows playback/record interface.
    Also, please try to quit synapse 2.0 since it may interfere with Skype.
    Also please try with the latest 6.13 version 
    www.skype.com/en/download-skype/skype-for-windows/downloading/
    if nothing helps, Can you please provide logs as described in this link https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12321/how-do-i-create-log-files under Skype for Windows Desktop and attach it to your post?
    Thank you

  • DVD-Audio and "can not detect sound blaster card" with Audigy2 Va

    I recently purchased an "Audigy2 Value" card from an eBay user, because I recently purchased some DVD-Audio discs. I downloaded the Audigy2 drivers from the website, and the Creative MediaSource player. 5. Surround sound worked fine for me, though sometimes the driver would reset to the default 2/2. sound and I would have to re-select 5. sound, which was annoying.
    Then I was completely unable to get the MediaSource player to recognise my DVD-Audio discs, and the EAX functionality of the player would never work. The EAX logo never appeared in the player. When I tried installing the MediaSource player from an install disc, I got the message "can not detect sound blaster card". Then I discovered the world of EEPROM problems.
    I followed advice from some other threads, including using ScanPCI to get information on the card, which yielded the following result.
    When installed on my machine (Asus A7A266 motherboard) the ScanPCI reads:

    On another machine (specs unknown, it's a "house pc") I got this (with 3 entries!):

    (Just a note: above you can clearly see that it does not say I have an Audigy, it thinks it is a SBLi've. Is this normal? The card IS an Audigy 2, it says so on the card.)
    So, I put the card back on my own PC, thinking this has fixed my EEPROM, but I get the same as before. Subsystem ID 0002h. And of course the install software will not detect the card.
    I realise that I could go back to using the web drivers, but this still leaves me with MediaSource not recognising the card and not enabling DVD-Audio or EAX, which is why I bought the card in the first place!
    I have heard that the VIA chipset is possibly to blame for the EEPROM problems on the Audigy cards, and certainly it seems like it is not permanent, since it gave different information on the other PC. So now I am seriously considering getting a new motherboard.
    Do other motherboards cause this same problem? I don't want to buy another board and get the same trouble. All I want is to be able to install my MediaSource and have it recognise my card so I can listen to my DVD-Audio discs.
    Cheers,
    Russ.

    Figured out my problem. Installing the drivers from the web to begin with was a bad idea. They just did not work properly with the card.
    The "card not found" problem has gone as well, after installing it in another PC. I am also using the proper install disc now, as the other one I was using turned out to not be for the Audigy 2 value after all, but was an Audigy 2 install disc. That easily explains the "Card not found" error. The differing results from the ScanPCI program are still bizarre, though.
    Thanks to all of the people on the forum who posted information in other threads to help me deal with this issue. For now I am sticking with the original drivers from the disc and I am not upgrading.

  • Mac Pro USB port can't detect SD card reader.

    My new macpro ( 2014) can't detect SD card reader with all 4 USB port ! I try to test with macbook Pro it's work properly ! What wrong with my USB port ?

    This is too obvious, but neverthelees:
    Have you checked that the card works on another computer?
    Does a different USB or FW device work on the same computer port?
    Is there a card actually in the reader?

  • Can not detect wireless card

    WRE54G / Win XP SR2
    My laptop and PDA can connect to the network wirelessly with no problems.
    Trying to connect my WRE54G to my network. On every attempt at AutoConfigure nothing happens. Have disabled router security and 'SPI Firewall' (whatever that is). Still nothing. Have disabled router security and 'SPI Firewall' (whatever that is), and McAfee Firewall. Still nothing. I have moved the WRE54G to within ~4 feet of the router and tried everything again. Still nothing.
    I have tried Setup but when I hit 'Next' I get the popup "Can not detect wireless card."
    Have tried a reset and have unplugged/replugged the WRE54G. FWIW, the WRE54G 'Link' light blinks blue once for about a second and turns a constant red. The 'Activity' light blinks blue twice quickly about every 5 seconds. Nothing on my PC shows any response.
    What is the wireless card that can't be found? The WRE54G?
    How do I resolve this?
    33#44

    this worked for me too.  Although I was never able to use the cisco install wizard successfully.  I am using WEP security on my access point.  I took the following steps.
    1.  From laptop, connect to network wirelessly with WEP security settings in place
    2.  From laptop, open browser, go to: 192.168.1.1, select wireless security, disable wireless security
    3.  From Range Extender, hold auto-configure button.  It took me multiple attempts (~5) and it connected so the 'Link' light changed from red to a consistent blue.
    4.  From laptop, disable security for the access point (via control panel, wireless network connection settings)
    5.  From laptop, connect to wireless access point (via control panel, wireless network connection settings).  test internet connection.  Internet should work.
    6.  From laptop, access range extender web utility.  open browser, got to 192.168.1.240, enable security, input desired WEP security settings/passphrase. 
    7.  From laptop, enable wireless security for the access point.  from browser, go to 192.168.1.1, select wireless security and enable it.  use the same settings from step 6 (from the range extender).
    8.  From laptop, update wireless adapter settings to connect using the same security settings (eg. passphrase) from step 6/7.
    range extender, access point and wireless adapter/laptop should all be connected.

  • Skype can't detect any webcam

    Hi, Since I updated the newer version of skype 6.11, my video does not work anymore. When I go under options, I get the message, "skype can't detect any webcam". I have a built-in camera in my laptop using windows 7. I know my camera works, but I don't know how to make skype detect my built-in camera. So far, I can call people, I see and hear them and they can hear me, but they can't see me since I don't even have the options to put on my camera anymore. Please, can anyone help me with this issue? I have already uninstalled and reinstalled skype, but it does not work. Thank you

  • BlackBerry Z10 Second can't detect Sim card

    Hi All
    I just bought a Blackberry Z10, secondhand from people I met from Internet
    The Blackberry is still kinda new, used only for a month. And I got it pretty much cheaper
    But the problem is, this Z10 can't detect sim card (yes the previous owner been telling about this before. She said its happened after she's upgrading the software)
    So, I bought it, and re-installed the software (10,2 - 10,3 - even back to 10,1) still not working.
    I'm trying to search the similar issues on Google, and found that it possibly because the simcard reader is broken
    I check the simcard reader, I'm not really sure, but yes, seems there one pins missing on there. I saw only 3 pins on my Z10 simcard reader. Haven't seen any other Z10. Would you mind to check your Z10? How many pins on there?
    And also, does the warranty will cover this issues if I claim it? I mean, it seems because human-error (previous owner might put the sim card not really carefully).
    If not, how much it cost to fix it and change the simcard reader part? Well think I'm not gonna gambling anymore to buy a cheap gadget in the hope I can't fix it by myself
    Thank you for help!

    Hi Aliarroughi
    Z10 I have a 3 sim card reader. there seems to be damage to your z10 sim card reader. try to correct the sim card reader price only $ 25

  • Sound problems, ALSA can't find sound card at boot

    Sometimes, my sound randomly drops out, and I can't get it back until I reboot. Even when I reboot, 1/20 times, it will not be back.
    When I watch stuff on youtube, sometimes the sound just drops out. Nothing gets muted. My audio player can't produce sound.
    If I do
    lsmod | grep snd
    I'll see the some output.
    When I reboot and try to play music from Quodlibet, I'll get an error like this:
    Output Error
    GStreamer output pipeline could not be initialized. The pipeline might be invalid, or the device may be in use. Check the player preferences.
    "lsmod | grep snd" will have NO output and when I try to start alsamixer:
    [xz@gestalt ~]$ alsamixer
    cannot open mixer: No such file or directory
    I can't figure out what's going on, and googling has just led me to various not-completely-related posts on this board... what could be the problem?
    EDIT: A few more things to note--
    I have alsa in my daemons list in rc.conf
    I'm part of the "audio" groups.
    soundcore is not blacklisted

  • Can not detect Sound Blaster Audigy 2 on this sys

    Im having trouble install drivers (apart from the old CD ones and some out of date ones) all the latest drivers or beta drivers say they cannot detect my card. I have an Sound Blaster Audigy 2 OEM which i bought nearly 2 years ago. I've tried swapping it to a different pci slot but makes no different Constant crashes when playing openal games. Even if i install the lates openal file. But i need to find out why i can't install the newest drivers and why they say i haven't got an audigy 2 when i have. In my device manger even says that its an "Creative SB Audigy 2 (WDM)" My system is as follows...

    Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 OEM
    PCTV Rave TV card
    Please some one help me, it will be greatly appreciated. If you need anymore info please let me know ( i may uninstall and remove the tv card just to get it off my list of perhaps the audio part of the tv card could be interfering ?)Message Edited by Alexia on -2-2005 :52 PM

    I am getting the exact same problem. Just downloaded the "Creative Sound Blaster Audigy unified series Beta driver with OpenAL support 2.08.0002" for my soundcard which is an Audigy 2 OEM (Model No. SB0240).
    I am using WIndows Media Center Edition 2005, but when I try to install the beta drivers, I get the following error message:
    "Setup is unable to detect a supported product on your system. Please ensure that your product is properly installed before running this setup program
    Setup will exit."
    My Device Manager shows Creative SB Audigy 2 (WDM) with driver version as follows:
    Driver Provider: Creative
    Driver Date: 23/06/2004
    Driver Version: 5.2..444
    I am currently hearing sound fine (so the soundcard is installed correctly), but the sound keeps cutting out from games that use OpenAL.
    Anyone else getting this problem? How did you fix it's

  • [solved] Pulseaudio doesn't detect sound card after system update

    Before a recent system update I had pulseaudio working flawlessly, but after doing a recent system update with pacman -Syu,
    pulseaudio no longer sees my sound card and only displays the Dummy audio device.  Among the packages updated that I can
    remember off the top of my head are the Linux keneral, udev, kmod, instead of trying to roll back my system I figured I would try
    to fix the issue.  The only thing suggested in the Pulseaudio wiki is that a asound.conf directory is overriding the /etc/asound.conf
    file which is not the case on my system.
    Looking at the output from lsmod I can see where the kernel modules for the sound card is getting loaded
    snd_hda_intel 23375 0
    snd_hda_codec 89160 3 snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hda_codec_hdmi

    snd_page_alloc 7153 2 snd_pcm,snd_hda_intel

    When I check out the ALSA directory mentioned, it turns out to indeed be the case that the entire ucm directory does not exist

    I'm not at all familiar with pulseaudio configuration. Does anyone know of a good way for me to resolve this issue? Have I even identified the correct issue?
    UPDATE:
    I was able to work around my problem for the moment by symlinking the configuration file to the location that pulseaudio was actually looking for it
    # mkdir -p /usr/share/alsa/ucm/HDA\ Intel
    # ln -s /usr/share/alsa/cards/HDA-Intel.conf /usr/share/alsa/ucm/HDA\ Intel/HDA\ Intel.conf
    Although this does get my sound back, it is a hacky work-around and obviously not ideal. Anyone who knows a bit about pulse configuration, I welcome your input here

    Thank you so much for posting your solution!
    I was having the same problem. The funny part was it started happening (and not always) after KDE says that the Intel HDA device is "gone" and asking me to remove it from my configuration. Even by saying no it wouldn't work. Killing pulseaudio with
    pulseaudio -k
    would have everything fallback to Alsa but starting pulseaudio again wouldn't work.
    Rebooting right away doesn't take care of the issue either but after a while the problem would go away...
    Any inputs would be appreaciated!

  • IPhone 3GS can not detect SIM Card after upgraded to iOS 6.0.1

    Guys I really need your advice please...
    I upgraded my iPhone 3GS 32GB from iOS 5.1.1 to 6.0.1 a couple weeks ago and since then it can not detect the my SIM Card ever. Before it's been upgraded, the phone was working just fine, but now it's just like a gameboy to me. I've been trying to find solution and some stores want me too pay quite amount of money to fix it but I refused.
    By the way, it has been jailbroken with RedSnow, tethered of course... and all the features are working perfectly, the WiFi is working, syncing is working, Bluetooth is working, downloading apps from App Store is okay, but only Mail and Safari won't work. I haven't got a chance to go to Apple Service Center to fix it yet, but the store I went said that Apple may say the same.
    Thanks in advance.
    ps to Admin: I'm a newbie, so if I posted this in the wrong room please forgive me.

    Thanks Chris for your solution.
    But just for you know that I bought Apple to get the 'after service', they should've warn the users not to upgrade to a higher OS if it can caused the phone 'dead'. Mine was totally unusable when it's just been upgraded. It stayed in the recovery mode and couldn't be restored. So I brought it to the nearest store and they did that to me, and eventually the phone is working, only it cannot detect my SIM Card...
    The problem is not about upgrading an iPhone to a newer version of iOS.  Your problem was upgrading a hacked phone, one of the well known consequences of which is re-locking and/or bricking the entire device when restoring in iTunes.  You chose to hack your phones firmware and operating system, so you must accept the consequences of going outside the bounds of normal use that Apple prescribes and supports.
    Had you not hacked it in the first place, you likely would have never had a problem, and if you had, Apple would have offered support to deal with it.  Your choice, your decision, your consequences.

  • Can't find sound card after clean reinstall from scratch to vista 32 bit from 64

    Greetings Everyone,
    Thanks in advance for taking the time to help me with this frustrating problem.  
    I did a clean reinstall from scratch to move to vista 32 bit from vista 64.   None of my goodies (mp3 player, phone.. all sadly antiquated) played on the 64 version.  That's why I nuked it.
    The reinstall worked like a charm, except now I can't get anything from the external jacks, which worked fine before the reinstall.  I've used every aspect of the device manager, and checked for downloads on each.  When I go to sound devices, it lists the soundcard as "high definition audio device," and says that the software has been updated.   
    The internal speakers are the delightful Altec Lansings.. and they work fine.  In fact, when I plug something into the headphone jacks, they continue working.
    Therefore, I'm trying to find the name of the sound card installed on my build, and then find the driver for it.  
    Here's all the specs from the back if you need them:
    Product: hp pavillion dv 9843cl refurbished
    I'm a music lover, and I love this computer, and I'll be sooooo happy if I can get this fixed.   I'm facing music withdrawals, and getting weaker by the day.  
    Could anyone please offer me advice?
    If there's any other information you need to know, please let me know. 
    Thanks so much!
    Rob
    most humble newbie

  • New install not detecting sound card

    My system is not detecting my sound card after a fresh install although alsa was working OK during installation.
    I had the same happen with a Sidux install and this was fixed by a download and re-install of phonon but something else is wrong here.
    Here is the lspci. Not sure what else I should post to help.
    My other Arch install (kernel 2.26.28) is ok. The problem seems to be with 2.26.29.
