Audigy LS weird sound problem

Asked by Michal Chrzastowski

I have Audigy LS soundcard, but it doesn't function properly. First of all I cannot make it work with more then 2 speakers (I have 4). Also, I cannot control volume via PCM, I have to regulate it on speakers, with the little knob. I'd love to have my Audigy LS operative and working... but it just refuses to cooperate :)

 regards

If you go to Edit -> preferences in Volume Control, are the extra volume controls you can turn on? The list usually has many options, most of which are not on. If you turn them on you get extra sliders in the volume control.

Thanks for fast reply. Unfortunately I did that, and it didn't help. What's more : my speakers don't respond to any volume changes done in Volume Control.

Can you help with this problem?
