That's it. You go to the Audio combobox (the first one), otherwise your
steps were correct. In that combobox, just choose the output device you are
to use: but make sure it is not the same as JAWS.
To find out which sound card is being used by JAWS, just go to the JAWS
menu, select Utilities, Sound Card submenu. You will see that "windows
default sound card" will be checked on if you never made any settings
before. So simply arrow to the other sound card in the list and check it on
by pressing the enter key.
This is to make sure that even if you alter the Audio device, JAWS won't
pick that up. For example, if I have SigmaTel and USB Headset, from the
control panel in the audio combobox you referred to, I can checkmark
Sigmatel as the Windows default output device. In the JAWS utilities->Sound
Card submenu, I would checkmark USB Headset.
The trick lies in knowing the name(s) of your sound card(s) which are being
used by your speakers.
Hope this helps a little.

Subject: [Blind-Computing] SKYPE 4.2, REVISION 42E,AND SKYPE TALKING AND THE
SPEAKERS
Friends,
As the subject line says Skype 4.2, Skype Talking, script revision 42E are
the programs and scripts with which i am working. Now the question i am
going to pose is how would I go about changing the speaker layout? So that
what I hear from the other person or Jaws comes through the computer
rather than the head set speakers. I want either one the jaws speech or
the person in which i am talking with to come through one speaker and the
other voice to come through the other one. I have posted to Skype mailing
list but the information in which i recieved is more elaborate than my
layout. I was told to go to control panel (not sure if Skype has its own
control panel or not). I was then told to go to the sounds and devices
link and from there to audio tab and select something to the effects of
Skype through the computer. I only have combo boxes and at the very most i
have three selections to make in anyone of the combo boxes.
The first combo box is dealing with audio playback devices
Options i have are : logitech usb headset or idt audio
The next combo box i come to is sound recording default playback device
options there are the same as above.
I then come to another combo box that has the same label as the one above
with the same options.
Now i come to a combo box that reads midi music default playback device
Option: microsoft gs wavetable SW synth.
I use Jaws 10 and windows XP. thank you all for any help offered on this
matter. i am not very knowledgeable in this area and the more detail the
better. thank you
J.P. Smith
