Re: [Vista] Sound settings with headset

all right, i tried that update that you suggested, but it stated something to the effect that this update does not apply to your system... I did install the intel inf updater thing, so maybe that will do the trick... Any way to get that patch from microsoft to work?

Re: [Vista] Sound settings with headset

You should also be able to pick this patch up at the Windows Update site. It should appear as an "important update" - Update for Windows (KB941600)

Perhaps you have already installed this patch. If so, KB941600 should show up as an installed update in Start > All Programs > Windows Update > View Update History

Re: [Vista] Sound settings with headset

All right, I have that KB update listed in my windows update history and it's still playing sound when the thing is at zero in windows. If there's any other suggestions, i'd be more than happy to try them... If not, thanks for your help, but its no big deal really. It's mainly an inconvenience rather than something that is worthy of redoing my system. Please though, if you have any other suggestions, i'm all ears!

Re: [Vista] Sound settings with headset

Can you check the driver being used by the headset again.

Double-click the plantronics headset in the device manager > Driver > then click on "Driver Details"

What driver(s) are listed under "Driver files"?

When you click the driver(s) under "Driver files" what is the File version (listed underneath)?

Re: [Vista] Sound settings with headset

all right auggy, i applied KB933262 from microsoft.. It updates the usb driver and fixes usb audio problems. Unfortunately, my headphones are upstairs with the rest of my peripherals because my father in law is sleeping in the bedroom! If you've heard of this fix, let me know what i am to expect tomorrow when i plug everything back in. I am confident in this fix as it updates the usbaudio.sys file to version 6.0.6000.20539. Unfortunately, the patch is only available through request from MS. here's the link to the KB article

»support.microsoft.com/kb/933262

Re: [Vista] Sound settings with headset

Good luck with the patch.

That update has helped a lot of users with USB audio problems in Vista and has potential for your problem.

I believe that patch will be included in SP1.
