MA-785G-UDH3 win 7 RC balance fades right?

OK...so this seems pretty strange...I think it might be software, but I suppose it could be hardware.

After awhile and at random occurences the audio balance will unexpectedly shift to the right. The settings don't actually show the audio balance moving right, but it clearly happens.

I've had it happen in the middle of listening to music.

If I reboot it comes back just fine.

If I unplug the speakers and plug them back soon as the realtek driver recognizes them and plugs back in it's all fine and stays that way for awhile.

I'm running the latest version of the realtek drivers from their site (r2.34).

Anyone have this problem or is my hardware borked?

i too have a gigabyte board and windows 7 with this issue. I find if i nudge the balance slider over to the left a few notches, i can get sound back in the left speaker without rebooting.

hrmm...interesting....
