A few months ago I decided to try Razer Surround, I have a Gioteck EX-05 wired USB headset and it is plugged in on the back of my tower. Now surround works well though if my PC is on or used for really long (days) then the sound gets messed up and gets playedback through the wrong ear piece (left becomes right and vice versa, very confusing) anyways in games like CoD Ghosts it does this all the time ever after a restart.

So I decided to remove it and I set my headset as my main playback device, the sound like in a browser on youtube and soundcloud is A+, but in games it's really soft and bad. Like in Battlefield 3 and 4. Any idea why? I don't have RealTek installed, I tried it but when it sets itself as my playback device there is no sound. I'm not great at computers. I run Windows 8 64-Bit.
