soo..i build myself a budget gaming pc about 1 months ago everything is working the way it should except the audio...every time im in game the game will mute or get really quiet whenever theres another source of sound EX:teamspeak or spotify..and thats not the top of it...for some reason when i manually turn a games volume down with windows volume mixer doohickey it doesn't seem to have any affect on the sound coming from the game/ or anything else like ts3 or spotify..i dont know what the issue is but i would like to get it fixed because it is very frustrating when u have the volume slider all the way set to 1 and the sound is still blaring..kinda makes talking to people very hard.
not sure if this is relevant but when i was installing windows 8.1 i ran into a little snag...windows forced me to pick English UK for the system language even tho i live in the usa
i also use soundblaster on my pc not sure if that helps any
heres the specs to my pc not sure if its needed but just in case
CPU-intel G3258 @ 3.2 GHZ
GPU- EVGA GTX 950 superclocked(i think thats the model with the single acx fan)
Motherboard- Gigabyte Gaming 5( the atx version)
Ram- 2X4 kingston savage @ 1600mhz
Case- NZXT S340
PSU- EVGA supernove nex 650W (gonna be replacing with a g2 when i get a new case in december)

before someone says anything...all the components are installed correctly the sound card is perfectly fine all the parts on the mobo/the cpu/ the gpu/ the ram are perfectly fine
