There is a Synthesizer and Braille manager, but no sound card manager as such, 
but like I said there is a list of sound cards. If I check the Windows default 
sound card, I lose sound from my headphones, as it goes back to the onboard 
speakers, so I have 
to change it to the headphones card -

  If you look under utilities in the JAWS MENU, there is a sound card manager 
which determines which device JAWS  will use. You might try looking at that.

  Hi all -

   

  I generally use my laptop with headphones, connected via a USB sound card. 
This means changing from the default by going to JAWS\utilities\sound cards, 
and changing from 'Windows default sound card' to the external headphones sound 
card. This works ok, apart from when I sometimes lose sound altogether! Anyhow, 
when I just went to listen to something on the pop out Iplayer, the sound from 
the Iplayer came out through the laptop speakers, while JAWS was still coming 
through the headphones. Very weird, and not what I wanted. Why might this 
happen? -
