Sound suddenly "mutes" (?) when gam

Hi there,
I have some strange issues with my audigy--card (player?).
I noticed while playing Doom or Black and White 2 - sometimes the sound suddenly mutes... All windows-sounds are still functioning.
This happens quite often in a while... only thing is to restart the game or swith to "window mode" in doom..
This has never happened before until I bought a Logitech Cordless Desktop 3000 in April 2005. I re-installed my system in june - still some probs (and I am no noob...).
Also I noticed sometimes little crackling for example in Tiger Woods 2005 when typing on the keyboard - but only randomly...
I use a nforce2-based motherboard if this hel
ps.
. and of course windows xp..
Using msinfo32 - there is no conflict on a shared resource for the audigy...
Sincerly,
Rain

Did you check the audio preference pane? The Mac might assume you want to use the audio interface and switch audio to the interface, which wouldn't make any sound if it weren't directly connected to speakers or headphones.

Default video sound is mute. But when i also can turn on from the volume bar.

I use FLVPlayback from CS 4 to input videos.
I need default sound is mute, but I can turn it on when I need it from volume bar.
Please see my attachement:
Here is the AS:
stop();
button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickListener1);
function clickListener1(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndStop("30sec");
button2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickListener2);
function clickListener2(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndStop("30sec2");

Yes, I can change the volume from 100 to 0 at flvplayback component. If I do this, I can not turn on the sound anymore. The swf file will stay mute all the time.
I need an answer using AS3 to control player. It is more flexible.
video player default is mute. I can turn on the sound later from volume bar.
thanks

Why do the Iphone sounds mute when voice recording?

Why do the Iphone sounds mute when voice recording?

Thanks for the response! I use Display Record with various sound/video themes and would like to include them in my presentations. For what it's worth, I will make a suggestion to Apple, to make the muting of sounds, during recording a user preference/setting.

Music mutes when changing to another app

Hey everyone! Like many of us, I'm used to listen my music while working. But lately, when I'm working with after effects or premiere and for some reason I need to change to another application, no matter what it is, the music suddenly mutes, until I come back to AE or PR, specially with AE. The only way I've been able to fix it is by changing the output from headphones to USB - Display, in system preferences and then back to headphones. But then again if I change apps, it does the same thing. Please help.
I'm using
Adobe CC 2014 Latest updates
Mac Pro - Late 2013
OSX Yosemite
3.5 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon E5
64 GB
AMD FirePro D700 6144 MB

The Music app should continue to play in other apps unless those apps need sound such as games. You should be able to surf the Internet and continue to play music in the background, but any other apps that rely on sounds will cause the music to quit playing.

No sound on YouTube when played through Facebook. Please help

When I play you tube videos through face book I can't get any sound

Do you have system sounds muted?
If you lost sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the control center. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to control center . Tap on the bell icon and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock can be accessed in the same manner as described above.

Sound quit on my game apps

I cannot hear the sound when I play my game apps. The side volume button is all way up and the sound bar on the sound scale (when tapping the home button twicw) is in the middle. What could be the cause? I have the new iPad.

Odd sound change in some games

Background: I recently installed Windows XP, and updated the drivers using the Creative Updater on the support site. since then whenever i run a specific game (DiabloII in this situation) the sound automatically gets louder and degraded. Previously I was running windows 98 with the .vxd version drivers without any issues. This occurs regardless of whether EAX/AudioHQ is installed or not. Originally I tried a driver upgrade installation, since then I've also tried a clean installation of the drivers with the same results..
sound card: Soundblaster Audigy (not mp3, platinum, gamer etc...) / 5.2.5.44 version drivers.
I've seen a couple of posts regarding the EAX control panel and settings while running some games. In the posts I've read, when AudioHQ is installed there is no ability to change the EAX settings while the game runs. Previous posts have suggested a clean installation of the drivers to remedy the issue, which does not seem to work in this case.
Mostly this is affecting me due to the fact i run a minidisc player on the line in jack. Even though I change the source of the line in settings, so that the line in doesn't use the master settings, the line in is still affected. In windows 98, if a game attempted to override the eax settings this was the fix i used.
Any suggestions are appreciated.

Is it all apps or just some games. Some games have their own sound settings. If it is all apps, you may have system sounds muted.

How do I get sound to work for games...?

How do I get sound to work for game apps, when I have sound for other items on ipad2?

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 it's the icon far left; 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

My iPad Prefs are set for the side switch to Mute; but the speaker does not mute when the switch is moved down.

My iPad Prefs are set for the side switch to Mute; but the speaker does not mute when the switch is moved down.

That setting only works for system sounds like push notifications (emails and the like), some game sounds, keyboard clicks and things like that. If you want to mute all sounds you still have to turn the volume all the way down with the volume switch.

Speaker wouldn't mute when headphone plugged in

I've search the forum for this problem and found several solutions but none if them work.
This is my problem...
One day the building I've stayed been struck by lighting and my laptop suddenly shutdown. When I turned it back on the problem occurs. My laptop speaker wouldn't mute when the headphone plugged in. I've try reinstall the driver and plugged in a new headphone still wouldn't mute and the sound from headphone only from one side. Is this hardware problem and can it be fix or this problem can be solve just by tweaking?
My laptop is Compaq Presario CQ45 107AU

Hello ricky_waldron,
Your speakers do not mute when headphones are connected.
Go to HP.com and update the BIOS and chipset driver.
Here is a link to the updates.
Since you have already done a recovery, it may be the hardware not working correctly.
You may need to call HP and have the laptop sent back for repair.
Here is a link to a phone number to call HP and see what options they have.
Let me know how everything goes.
Have a good day.

Sound suddenly starts and stops working?

My iPhone 4S isn't making sound. My settings have not changed and I have turned my phone on and off several times. When I click the buttons on the side to adjust, the icon shows on the screen, but the dots for volume are not there. In my music, it plays, but the sound bar is grayed out, and it won't adjust at all when I click it. In some apps, like YouTube, the sound bar is gray as well, but again, I didn't make any adjustments to my phone. I haven't dropped it. It had stopped and started working multiple times. It went in and out while I was getting ready for work this morning. I got a text alert and then the next text it vibrated but made no noise. I don't get the sound when it sends a text or the noise when it locks my phone. It's like the phone suddenly mutes itself but I didn't tell I too. My music has started and stopped as I wrote this message but again, I have done nothing to the phone itself. I assumed this was a hardware glitch because all the advise I have found for this issue is to clean out the sound docks on my phone. I did that already but the issue has persisted. Turning it on and off has not made a difference. I also can't hear calls. My phone is pretty useless without sound.

i carnt hear my message tone,the sound it makes when the phone locks and opens,also i am unable to hear music when playing from my phone but my ringtone and alarm tone work.Ive made sure the silent button is not on,and the volume button on the side of the phone is just showing it blank instead of it going up and down.To try and fix this i have reset my settings and restored my phone,but now its just skipping the music i have purchased from itunes when in a docking station which is now another problem i have as well.Can anyone help????

Hello dbrookes,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like even though the Mute switch is not on, sounds are not making the, well, sound they should, and the volume buttons make a blank volume indicator appear on the screen that does not show the volume level.
I wanted to recommend a couple of things.
First, I would reset the phone:
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
From: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If that does not resolve the issue, then you may want to try backing up to iTunes, and restoring the iPhone again but this time do not restore the backup and set it up as new to see if the issue persists without the previous configuration.
Just incase you need it, this article will help with that:
