Sistem sound configuration

[Trooper117]

If you have 5.1 sound as normal, have you checked your conf ini file as the OP stated at the start, and what does your 'speakers=' line come out as.. 0 or 3?
Interested to find out..

I also have read it, but in my case does not change.
The steps I follow are:
I force Steam to check the integrity of files.
Complete, copy the sim folder to another location.
Here I apply the beta.
Check the conf.ini and in my case it defaults to 1. I have a 5.1 sounds set up in windows. I fly and then recheck again *. inis, unchanged.

Thinking about what has been said, it is possible that sim folder out of Steam folder configuration is not possible ...

Actually I find two lines titled speakers.
The first is towards the top of the sound section of the conf file and reads "Speakers=1", the other is towards the end of the sound section and reads "speakers=3", and yes, one has a capital S the other a minor s.

I use for my creative soundblaster card a piece of software from creative called Alchemy as well. You have to manually input the game location into Alchemy and it seems then to add files for hardware use into the main game folder. Did this with many games already, however with CoD the only place to point Alchemy to is the Launcher.

I also find a line in the sound section "hardware=1".
