problem with sound playback under windows xp pro
Hello.
Somehow I'm baffled by a mysterious problem with sound playback under windows xp pro. I suspect it's related to the driver and it's probably a software-related issue, but I'm puzzled how to resolve it. The problem is that when I play mono sound files, I barely hear anything. As soon as I shift the balance (either left or right) however, sound comes back. Stereo files do play at the regular volume level but fairly distorted. I have an integrated sound card, Intel(r) 82801AA AC'97 Audio Controller. Removing the hardware under windows xp pro (which means windows automatically installs it again) doesn't seem to help. Does anyone know how to resolve this problem? Thanks in advance for any feedback on this issue, kind regards, Niek |

For mono sound files, the two channels would then sum to zero. Stereo sound files would sound "phasey", with poor imaging. |
