And which is selected? The device supports 2-channel (stereo) recording at the usual range of sampling rates, with 16-bit or 24-bit resolution, with the default format set to 2-channel, 24-bit, 48kHz. The same thing happens when I set the default to 16-bit. I've also noticed the same thing with the inbuilt HD sound port on the motherboard - when an application records in a mono format, only the left channel is recorded, not (L+R)/2 which you'd normally expect and which happens on XP.

Is this by design, and if so, is there any way of making the audio engine do an L+R mix when recording mono? Or do I have to create a virtual mono-mix endpoint in my driver?
