Acer eAudio Management

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
I have a stereo system hooked up to my computer through component style cables (Red/White) that connect through the headphone jack. If I switch eAudio Management to S/PDIF Digital Output, the sound works much better. But if I try and do something else, like switch to youtube, the audio wont play at all. If I go back to iTunes again, it also wont play. I have to close iTunes, switch eAudio to "Built-In Speakers", re-open iTunes, then switch back to S/PDIF. Its a pain to have to open and close iTunes all the time. The audio quality is much better with S/PDIF and dont want to have to sacrifice by leaving it on Built-In Speakers. My actual stereo plays when Built-In Speakers is selected (not the laptop speakers), the quality is just inferior. Are there any reasons for this? Is there any solution to fixing it so that the S/PDIF is always working?

Have you reviewed Windows Sounds and Audio options and see if you can choose S/PDIF as default output?

I dont see setting that as a default option. I only have a "Sounds" not "Sounds and Audio" option as well. This is Vista 64bit if thats any help... Still have the problem where once I switch to digital output, if I switch sources (ex: itunes to youtube) i have to close programs and switch back after

If you right hand click on the volume icon on system tray, you will have the option of playback devices. Left click on that and play with it.
