    Delayed system sounds


    Currently running 7022 (runs fine for me so I'm not upgrading until RC1) and among the annoying little quirks is the fact that all of my system sounds (alerts, etc) appear to be delayed. I hear them a full second or two after the action that triggers them.

    Anyone else having this problem? Is there a fix in a later build?

    I'm on a Dell Latitude D830 with a SigmaTel HD audio chipset.

    Cheers.

    Hi Mark, and welcome to Seven Forums.

    I have not experienced this in the 7000, 7048, 7057, or 7068 builds. You might try one of them instead to see if it may work better for you.

    Hope you get it sorted,

Hi, I've got a weird one: I hooked the HDMI from the PC to the television and get great picture, but the sound is weird. I get system "dings" and whatnot, but I don't get the audio from games or YouTube videos. I've already tried setting the default audio device to the HDMI port, but I get...

No matter what sound scheme I choose all system sounds are a low frequency click. If I open a wav file and select play from the context menu I hear what I would expect, but when I apply that wav file (e.g. a chiming bell) to say System beep - all I hear is the click! Other programs - like...
