Hello all,
I have an annoying problem with my PC. When watching DVDs in 5.1 surround sound I get a little crackling/popping noise from every few seconds when the FL and or FR speakers are in use, but never from the centre speaker, even after 10 or 20 minutes of dialogue. In theory I might suspect a short or some other fault with those two speakers, but they work beautifully for hours on end when playing music in itunes. I've got the latest drivers for motherboard and soundcard, but to no avail. The soundcard is a Terratec Aureon 7.1 (set to 5.1) with Teufel 5 speaker set up. All of the right noises come out of the right speakers, but like I said there's those infuriating crackles when a DVD uses the satellites. Other specs are FX3200, 16GB of ram and Crucial SSD. There's onboard sound, but I've set it to disabled. Graphics card is a GT630.
Many MANY thanks if anyone can solve this one, it's not exactly major, but sooo irritating!
