Hello Dana
Here is how I have my two sound cards operating and it does work fine. read
it over and see what you think, I hope it can help!
Dick
To use two sound cards:
Go to the control panel and choose sounds and audio
Go to the audio tab
On the audio tab the first drop down box is for soud playback
Choose the second sound card (Imic) and click ok
Now Jaws will play on the second set of speakers
For winamp:
Open winamp
Go to the file bar at the top and choose option
Next choose preferences
In preferences under plug-ins
Choose output
On the device tab choose the main sound card (SB audigy audio)
Then click ok
Next click close
Now winamp will play out of the main speakers
For windows media player:
Open windows media player
Choose tools from the file menu
Go to the devices tab
Click on speakers
Next click on the properties button
Choose the main sound card from the drop down box (SB audigy audio)
Click ok then click ok again
Now windows media player will play out of the main speakers
Jerry,
I tried that, at someone else's suggestion (from another list), but it didn't seem to work for me. It certainly wouldn't keep working, I don't think, after a reboot with all devices plugged in.
I finally resolved the problem, but only by plugging my desktop speakers back into the C-media card built into the machine and making that card the default audio device. That way, the card and the Logitech USB headset play together nicely. I still need to test whether I can still use the Griffin USB IMic as an input device, for digitizing from my stereo, with all the rest plugged in, as well. But that is a lesser priority, as I've already finished digitizing all my old music cassettes. The main thing, now, is that I can both get JAWS speech through the desktop speakers and use the Logitech headset with Skype.
Thanks, again.
Blessed Be,
Dana

Dana! It's my experience that most, maybe all USB audio devices take
over all the audio on your computer when they are plugged in. When you
change the default audio device back to the Griffin device a restart of JAWS
should get it back to the Griffin device.
