[QUOTE="Berns, post: 679935, member: 96677"] Hi. Though my motherboard is completely different from yours, I have decided to use the HDMI link between the PC and my amplifier to transport the sound. There were 2 reasons: 1) SP/Dif output from my PC was perceived as stereo when MePo was not sending any sound. When MePo started producing sound, the amplifier had to switch to 5.1 surround. This resulted in an annoying pop (the end of the cricket sound when going through menus) instead of hearing the complete sound 2) On odd occasions sound would be unavailable and a reboot of the PC would be needed to solve the issue In my original SP/Dif optical based setup (HDMI to TV screen for image only and SP/DIF optical to amplifier for sound only) I used the SP/Dif option as the default one. (Yours currently is set to HDMI, so maybe just setting the SP/Dif as default might maybe solve something).
