OK -this has been happening for a while and I am finally going to try to fix it. I got the "man cave" done and I move my 50 inch plasma, the PS3, the Direct TV, and the gaming PC and the 5.1 AVS with decent high end speakers into my new room. Connection are all HDMI out of GPU (AMD 290) /PS3 ( blue ray player)/Direct TV/ to AVS (Sony) , then HDMI out of AVS to Plasma TV.
Here my issue. every time I reboot the PC the default 2.0/16 bit settings come up and I have to reconfigure all the speakers,etc - which are not even- left channel is much louder than right, center channel is even louder than left. If I use Direct TV or the PS3 blue ray the loudness/balance is correct. SO, what the hell is up with the PC on audio?
I have the latest catalyst drivers, I have Realtek Drivers as well. Sometimes the settings go back to the 2.0/ 16 bit default settings even without reboot if the PC is not used for a while.
Not a big deal - just frustrated.
Audio devices drivers in PC currently - I have three:
1) AMD high definition audio
2) INTEl (R) display audio - 6/19/2012 version 6.14.0.3097
3) Realtek high definition audio- version 6.0.1.6559
