ASUS Xonar D2
I can’t hear any sound from my analog speakers
Instructions:
1. Make sure that you have connected speakers properly and have powered on
your speakers
2. Make sure that the device master volume or the software player has NOT
been muted on the Xonar D2 Audio Center
3. 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.
Check if this is the case.
4. Go to the sound and audio device of Windows Control Panel to check if the
playback default device is set to Xonar D2 Audio Device, instead of other
onboard AC97 or HDA codec device or Xonar D2 Audio Converter. (Xonar
D2 Audio Converter is the driver for PMP music converting, not for normal
playback) If it’s not, please set it to Xonar D2 Audio Device and restart your
applications.
5. 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 rst.
I can’t hear audio input (Mic, Line-in, CD-in, etc.) from my speakers
Instructions:
1. Go to the mixer recording page in the Audio Center and select the correct
input as the recording source (Xonar D2 uses high-quality 118dB digital
recording and monitoring to route the input signal through to the output.) If
you are using Windows Vista, please also go to system audio control panel to
see the current default recording/input device is right.
2. Remember to turn on the digital monitoring button for that recording source.
