Hello,
I have a Soundblaster Live 5.1, and this card is known to output better sound quality through its headphone (black) jack. The OS outputs Stereo (2.0) sound by default over the speaker (green) jack. I can't modify this behavior, the only way for the system to output Stereo sound is if I choose 5.1 or 4.0 audio output, but then it also outputs part of the sound through other jacks I don't use, hence some applications sound distorted.
Is there any way to force Stereo sound over the headphone jack only? This works under Windows using the kX audio drivers.
I've tested changing it with HDA Analyzer but since the card is not an HD Audio card, it won't show up on its list.
Thanks in advance.
