Hi all
With the current Standard Microsoft Driver for USB-Audio Devices I'm getting
distortions. I've already tried SP1 (Eval). No improvement.
I'm using a BOSE Companion 5 sound system, but several users complain the
same problem with other brands of sound devices, as you may read in popular
Vista-Boards.
When listening to sound of all kinds, such as music from Windows Media
Player, Audio-Streams, Digital-TV, etc., the sound gets distorted after some
playing time (after a few minutes, sometimes after more than an hour) and it
will not stop until the sound device is detached and reconnected again. And
then, the same game starts again....
There is no direct reference to the sound source at all: the same mp3-song
may be played and replayed times and again in perfect quality, with no
distortions at all, when suddenly distortions begin.
I read that BOSE are denying any problems with the hardware. Sound systems
shipped to them for repair were all returned with "no errors found". They
say, it's caused by an "improper sound signal".
With Windows XP distortions are virtually unknown, it seems that only Vista
is affected (DRM???).
Has anybody the same problems? What can be done?
