I have a Z680 and a coaxial connection to the Mobo.

Well, When I go to nvMixer, I set it up as 5.1 system (I also went to the control panel and set up the sound and recording option to 5.1 system)


I have the Z680 set to Dolby Digital PL2 Music

I click on the "Speaker Wizard" Button

I hear the whitenoise out from ALL the speakers (front, left, right, left rear, right rear) and I click "Yes, I hear sounds from my speakers."

I click "Next"

Its suppossed to test individual speakers but I get no such options.

so I just click "next" and the NVDIA speaker configuration wizard recognizes my set up as "two speaker" setup.

But If I click "Back", there is a speaker setup wizard.

It first sends a white noise to my left channel. and I click "yes, i hear..."
then to my right channel and i click "yes, i hear..."
then to my center channel and i click "yes, i hear"
then it tests my LEFT rear speaker but the sound comes out through my FRONT LEFT speaker!!!
Same with the next phase... It tests my Right Rear Speaker but the sound comes out through the Right FRONT!!!

Then it moves on to the LEFT Surround Back speaker and I get no SOUND.
Then it moves on to test the Right Surround Back Speaker and I get no sound...

It then tests my subwoofer and the subwoofer works but I do hear a loud hiss from my center as well...

WTH is going on?

Any Z680'ers with this awesome mobo to help me out???
