sound (mic) issues

[irish]

win XP, soundblaster aud 2 plat ed., mic works fine in any other game

I have the newest patch for bf2.

Well, I try to test my mic using the ingame test and it sounds fine. When i join a server though, all of those options in audio are greyed out(this might always be the case but im not sure).

Oh and im in a server that allows VOIP. :)

When im in a squad and hit my mic bind the green icon is displayed but no one can hear anything. If im not in a squad no icon is displayed and no one can hear anything.

I emailed EA support but i doubt that will help.

Any suggestions?

Try this: Start-Run: dxdiag, hit the audio tab and knock the acceloration down to basic. Ive heard that works. Good luck =)

BTW do you know how to get case audio ports to work with Audigy 2ZS?

U mean like the little handy ports they put on the front of the case?

I heard you cant, well thats what abs told me. But if you find out let me know. I believe they are for onboard sound only.

They are for onboard sound. I don't know of a sound card that has extra pins on it to support front audio.

=\ That really is a pain in the ass, youd think that would be a fundimental add on too =P

You'd think so eh? Pick up a standard headphone jack splitter at Radio Shack. Thats what I did, I now have both my headset and speakers running off of my Audigy2.

radio shack is pricey as hell

and that basic idea actually worked, thanks

who knew turning down ur settings would help lol

Thats good =) Now Im having horrible feedback issues on VOIP but Im using headphones with a separate mic oO Its a little iritating, cant figure out the problem either.
