76 ASUS Xonar D2X

I can’t hear any sound from my analog speakers

Instructions:

1. Xonar D2X PCI Express audio card needs the power cable to supply addition

power in addition to the basic PCI Express bus power. Please double

check you have plugged the small 4-pin power plug onto Xonar D2X power

connector. If you did not plug the internal power, Xonar D2X audio center will

remind you a warning message and won’t allow your operation when you

double click Xonar D2X audio center icon in the system tray.

2. Please ensure that you have connected speakers properly and have powered

on your speakers

3. Please ensure that the device master volume or the software player has NOT

been muted on the Xonar D2X Audio Center

4. If you are using Dolby Digital Live or DTS Interactive encoders through the

S/PDIF output, the analog output will be muted to get rid of the interference

between your digital speaker system and analog speakers or headphones.

Please check if this is the case.

5. Please go to the sound and audio device of Windows Control Panel to check

if the playback default device is set to Xonar D2X Audio Device, instead of

other onboard AC97 or HDA codec device or Xonar D2X Audio Converter.

(Xonar D2X Audio Converter is the driver for PMP music converting, not for

normal playback) If it’s not, please set it to Xonar D2X Audio Device and

restart your applications.

6. Please try restart your Windows.

I can’t hear any sound from the S/PDIF output

Instructions:

1. Ensure that you have enabled S/PDIF output in the Audio Center GUI (Main

page)

2. Ensure that you are connecting the correct S/PDIF output jack on the card to

the decoder’s (AV receiver) S/PDIF input jack

3. You may need to select the correct input and mode of your decoder or AV

receiver. For Dolby Digital or DTS output, you may have to double check that

the AV receiver is in that decoding mode.

4. If you are using 192KHz PCM output, please make sure your decoder can

support 192KHz decoding. Try changing it to 44.1K or 48KHz first.
