Jeigh1405241495 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2008 If the cards software auto-detects changes to that equipment plugged into your computer, it might be something as simple as when you plug in the surround sound your base is muted or really low in the sound mixer settings. Might want to make sure its not something low level like that before looking for more complicated reasons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But Sohaib is referring to Creative sound blaster 5.1, which is very old. I used to have one of those. It's still quite manual in terms of setting and hooking it up.
