Dale Thanks. I never had difficulty with other USB external sound devices. I simply went to control panel and selected them as my sound choice. The problem here is this unit is not listed as an option for sound to go to. This was the only response to date to my post. It seems to me I remember someone or maybe a few folks on this list successfully using blue tooth sound devices on their computer. Hope to hear from them. I will also check with Radio Shack to day to see what's up

The USB device is not the same thing as plugging a wireless headphone transmitter into the external speaker or headphone socket of your computer sound card, it is it's own unique sound device. Just off the top I can't remember how to do that but there will probably be lots of traffic on using Jaws with external sound cards in the archives.
