I’m having sound problems my K3S. I don’t recall this ever happening with my K3 but when I launch windows 7 on my PC, the K3S, USB Audio CODEC is turned off. It’s shown in the Volume Mixer and when I double click on the Icon, it launches the properties for the CODEC. I can click on the Levels tab and set the Microphone level. When I click on the speaker Icon, the sound is on and I can adjust the level.
Here’s what gets weird. After the few or even several seconds, the sound goes off and the speaker icon shows the circle with a slash. The microphone level also moves to zero. I have the volume mixer stretched halfway across the bottom of the monitor and I noticed that other sound devices are shown. At least 3 or 4 pop up and they all have level controls and a speaker icon. If I move a slider up, it pops back down. If I click on the speaker Icon nothing happens. For some reason the they hijacked all of the legitimate record devices and turned them off. Now this is really weird. If I launch Task Manager, for a few seconds under the processes tab, I can see several copies Regsvr32.exe, then they disappear. I can go back the K3S CODEC and turn it back on. Everything is OK but after a few or even several minutes the Regsvr32.exe processes are back and the sound goes off. Several copies of the bogus audio devices are back and if I kill Task Manager and launch it again, Regsvr32.exe and the bogus sound devices are gone, for several minutes and the process repeats. I normally run Norton Internet security and do scans periodically but I never had a virus. My son came over and he ran Malware-bytes and several other virus detection programs but nothing was found. ----- Jack WA9FVP Sent from my home-brew I5 Core PC -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K3S-USB-sound-issues-tp7628468.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
