Headphone jack not working

Guvnor

Hi guys, firstly let me say a big thank you for the KX Project.

I have the dreaded Vista and a SoundBlaster live 5.1 platinum.

Thanks to the 3539 drivers i can finally get my soundcard to work but i cannot get the front headphone jack working?

Any ideas?

Thanks

Did you make sure that output in kX mixer is turned up? (INS & OUTS page - top, second slider from right for me - but, IIRC was set by default - maybe you lowered it when figuring out kX ?? )

yUP, ALL OUTPUTS ARE TURNED UP!

I also just found out that the MIC isn't working either!!

Hmm no clue - sorry - Im not on vista..

But if you search the forums about the mic - its been asked numerous times and Im too tired to type it all out.. I did once - its comprehensive and aimed at VOIP (WDM) ..but ...
MD6 - KX Mic Setup(default DSP config)

edit - in XP and kX V3538M (version just before 3539) my platinum Livedrive All works - line/mic2, Aux 2, Coax/optical & headphones.

Maybe try turning off AUTO mute (right click on kX tray icon > Settings > 'Automute Speakers when headphones plugged in' - maybe thats a problem... ??? tho does work for the most part for me.

What DSP config are you using?

If it is the default config, use the peak plugin in the DSP to verify that you are getting a signal from the top 2 pins of Surrounder. If you are not getting a signal there, than verify that "Master Mixer" is the default device in the Windows Control Panel.

If it is not the default config, make sure that your routing has a connection to the Headphone pins of epilog/kxlt (from the audio source that you want in the headphones, etc).
