A8N-SLi/WinXP SP2 - strange volume control wierdness...

[Lon Leader]

OK, I know this isn't as important as world peace or the price of oil,
but if someone could shed some light on this I would appreciate it...

When I grab and release the volume control slider, I just noticed that
instead of making the usual 'doink' sound through the system speakers
it beeps the motherboard speaker. I 'think' other system sounds are
behaving normally (can't think of what else makes a system sound, but
programs that make clicks still do, and the startup and shutdown
sounds still play).

I'm not sure if this just started or if it has been like this since I
upgraded to the A8N-SLi a week ago, because I have a volume control on
my keyboard that I usually use. (For the record, I'm using a
Soundblaster Live instead of the onboard sound.)

Any ideas?

I found a fix for this, and it works. There exists a registry update
called - are you ready for this - dingfix.reg. Google it if you need
it. It solved my problem
