Troubleshooting
D-3
To solve the problem:
1.
In Surround Mixer’s Mixer deck, make sure the check box of the source being played is
unmuted, that is, enabled.
2.
Select the same source as the record source.
For example, if you are playing DVD games or movies, make sure in Surround Mixer you unmute
the Auxiliary device and select the Auxiliary device as your record source. For more details, see
Figure 1-7 on page 1-9.
If you have changed environments, go to Surround Mixer and make sure that your active
sources are unmuted.
No sound from the speakers.
Check the following:
First, check that you have connected your speakers to your card's output. Second, check that
you have unmuted the correct source in Mixer deck. If both these conditions have been met
and you still do not get any sound, click the red plus sign above the VOL control and check
whether the Digital Output Only check box is selected. If it is, you are in the Digital Output
Only mode and so must connect to digital speakers to hear the sound from your audio card.
See the section on Digital Output Only in Surround Mixer’s online help for more information.

The speaker volume knob (if any) is not set properly.
