[QUOTE="cics, post: 235994, member: 63469"] I believe its an external signal issues too. I've work hard for the past 2 years to create a htpc for high end music player (currently there is no such high end sound card, current best solution is a good sound card with digital output to an external DAC). Wireless issue: In my experience; wireless card next to sound card may randomly pause music. The wireless card can cause interference with sound card. Solution if wireless issue: use external USB wireless adapter or move the internal as far as possible away from sound card(s) Noise/spike from power line: I haven't seen this make video or sound to drop out. It does make noise to the sound stage and give a sound spike when for ex. you start the microwave to warn your fastfood. Solution to power line issue: If you want better sound and video image when you need main power filter. But this don't solve the randomly sound cuts. ATI Video driver: I've experience older video driver from ATI can cause sound to randomly hang for 2-3 seconds. Solution ATI driver: upgrade to latest driver or use NVidia. Sound driver: I never experience issue with sound driver causing this sound cuts. Do you have this issue if you play movies or musics from an other application such as VLC or WMP? [/QUOTE]
