Yeah, Ty, the other prob might be that Realtech has a very inaccessible sound manager that could be messin w/your settings. Problem is, uninstalling it doesn't seem to be an option &/or cure the problem. 1 thing u might try is to go into the mixer program & make sure the proper settings are in place, e.g., it doesn't think you're using surround sound when you're just using headphones.
