Audio Rear Channel Issue

[Will013]

Hi,
Welp right now I am stuck with Realtek Onboard Audio until I get my Revo 7.1 ;)...but I am having an issue with this....

I am running the Logitech Z-640...but the back two speakers only seem to work in Windows Media Player and the Speaker test...Any other audio/video player as well as games do not utilize the rear speakers for some reason...The rear speakers are not muted/faded so I am not exactly sure WHAT is wrong with them...

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Will

Sounds like an issue with the software for your sound card. If you select hardware acceleration in the options for games (in the audio) section, it should utilize all the speakers. Also, make sure the app for the sound knows you have more than two speakers.

Hi,

Thanks for the response...Do I have to do this for winamp too?
My rear speakers do NOT work in Winamp which I would think they would...I do not see any options for setting as 5.1...In Windows Audio Settings I already set my speaker type to 5.1...


Any help would be great..
Thanks
