Audigy SE and Headphones
I've been having an odd problem with my Audigy SE card and my headphones. When I was using on-board sound, there would be a "headphone" device separate from the "speakers" device. With the Audigy SE, there is only a "speakers" device. This is problematic because every program I run thinks I'm running stereo speakers and not headphones. Some programs, like Steam games, let me manually change from speakers to headphones (but it still resets to speakers every time I restart), others don't. And yes, it does make a difference.
I don't have a front-panel audio connector or anything, I just plug my headphones right into the green jack of the sound card.
I don't really need a "fix" for this (though it would be nice), just some kind of hack to make Windows think the "speakers" device is really headphones. Do any other Audigy SE owners have this problem too?
Many thanks.
