Intel Integrated Audio NEED HELP!

[RyanCMil]

Hey guys,

Running JAS 10.4.8

Dell Dimension 3000

GeForce FX 5500 works fine

Lan Fixed with patch

 

 

The real problem is the audio. I can adjust volume and all OS X sound effects work. When I have audio, quality is good.

 

I get audio through OS X in itunes and quicktime and the DVD player but in all of the other applications audio is dodgy or mostly nonexistent.

 

example: in skype I go to call but I only hear the ring tone and then the audio cuts out. My microphone registers in system preferences and when I skype someone, they can hear me fine.

 

On a side note, to get the audio working I had to change the audio to either 4ch or 6ch and make left speaker 3 and right 4 or left 3 and right 6 respectively.

Also, in audacity I can record audio but if I try to play it back in audacity I can't hear anything.

If I export the file as .wav and play it in itunes, it works great.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

PLEASE HELP! I want to be able to use other programs!!!!
